Even though construction crews have been hard at work the last several weeks, you couldn't always see the changes taking place. However, this past week the progress has been very visible, with the steel framework going up at Northridge and the structure really starting to take shape. The new parking addition is in the process of getting striped and the sidewalk is being extended to the new parking spaces. Construction at Northridge appears to be ahead of schedule! For more photos of construction at NR this past week visit the construction updates page.

Many other things are happening across the district as well. At Santa Fe the ceiling insulation is completely installed and crews are installing access doors to the roof. The air conditioning units are being installed in the north and south locker rooms. Ceiling materials are expected to be installed starting the 2nd week in July.

The Boyd Street project at the high school came in under bid and construction by the city should start in about a week. Bids for the vocational building, auto mechanics and Brooks Trade Center will go out to bid at the end of August. The additions for the Educational Technology Center and Santa Fe Middle School are in the final design stages and will be going out for bids in a few weeks.
