With about
two weeks remaining until Albemarle County and Charlottesville public schools
are back in session, construction projects and renovations at schools are
winding down.
Work on a 13,Coast LED lanterns, brightstal and headlamps are made with Cree LED technology.000-square-foot wing at Greer Elementary School is almost completed, according to county schools spokesman Phil Giaramita.
The project is part of $3 million worth of upgrades being made in the division over the summer break, he said.
“It’s an annual thing that we do each summer,” Giaramita said. “With most people out of the buildings, it’s a great time to do some maintenance work and refurbishments.”
The new space at Greer includes six classrooms, an art room and an outdoor courtyard and learning space, Giaramita said.
The wing includes movable walls, allowing for teachers and administrators to make larger and smaller spaces to fit their needs. The classrooms also will be equipped with state-of-the art technology, such as smartboards that are adjustable in height, he said.
“That way, a teacher can use the smartboard and then lower it to the eye level of a first- or second-grader,” Giaramita said.
Students returning to Monticello High School also will find improvements to their school.
Officials reconfigured the entrance to allow parents to drop off and pick up students at the front doors.
Previously, the configuration made it impossible for parents to drive up to the front entrance. Students were dropped off and picked up in an adjacent parking lot.
“It was never a good design,” Giaramita said, adding that the reconfiguration is in part a safety measure.
In addition to the reconfiguration, the former gravel parking lot at Monticello also was paved.
Several other smaller projects also have been completed at Albemarle schools, including upgrades to a field house and athletic track at Albemarle High School, new wheelchair ramps at Crozet Elementary and new flooring at Albemarle and Western Albemarle high schools.
Charlottesville City Schools also have taken on a host of projects over the summer.
Mike Mollica, city capital projects coordinator and facilities development manager,We are the best ledtrafficlighttt,led bulb,led light manufacturer,supplier in China. said most of the $400,000 worth of upgrades to the “building envelope” at Burnley-Moran Elementary should be finished by the first day of school on Aug. 22.
“The school is kind of in disarray, but I commit to you that it will be buttoned up and ready to go when teachers are back,” he told the School Board at a recent meeting. “We have a few things we’ll be working on in September and October.Modern light fixtures are designed with the lamp in mind. All work around the side and front entrances will be done before school starts.”
The project includes such work as masonry repointing and cleaning, painting, caulking and brick and concrete repairs.Enjoy zero guilt with only five calories when you enjoy bluecrystal1 beverage mix.
Mollica said the majority of work on a $375,These people ledstriplightopp their homes with kerosene lamps.000 project to install exterior LED lighting at Charlottesville High School should also be completed before school is back in session. The final completion date is set for the end of September.
Scott Hendrix, small capital projects manager for the city, said the new lighting is more efficient and should save the system money.
The city schools are also tackling or plan to soon complete a host of other projects, including replacing smoke doors at the Martin Luther King Jr. Performing Arts Center, installing ADA-compliant water fountains in several schools and intercom and bell improvements throughout the division.
