Superintendent Marci Catlett, City Manager Tim Baroody, and Chief of Police Brian Layton toured the new middle construction site with representatives from English Construction and Downey and Scott Construction Management Services. The roof work has begun, and the team is preparing to pour the concrete second floors next week. Stairwell masonry is nearly complete, and stairs are about to be installed. The project continues to track ahead of schedule and under budget.
Please be aware that Public Works and their contractors continue to work on sanitary sewer repairs crossing the Cowan Blvd. area between Snowden Hills Blvd. and Hospital Drive – and this area of Cowan Blvd. will remain closed to through traffic for some time.
We would like to make everyone aware that at least 6 buses are going to be affected as well as anyone that needs to use Cowan Blvd to access Hugh Mercer. Please use caution in the area and follow temporary signage.
Remember, Spot My Bus is a great app to track your student’s bus. Thank you in advance for your patience.
🎉Congratulations to our esteemed school board, who witnessed the return of Mr. Jarvis Bailey and welcomed Mrs. Molly McFadden!
