Maintenance/Facilities
A design and state approved plans are in the works for the new track building.   It will be similar in size and height to the shelter out near the baseball field / concession stand area and will have a similar exterior and roof as the bus garage.  

There are some drainage challenges which are causing ponding on the softball field and behind the bus garage.  Remediation may include adding a drainage ditch near the Farm/District white fence area.  

JH building leak - The JH building had a leak on the ridge of the roof.  Clouse Construction fixed the issue.  
 
Staff and Students
The opening staff meetings went well on Tuesday.   On Monday, staff was treated to Gerry Brooks, educator/comedian over at Old Fort.  Staff from Seneca East, Old Fort and New Riegel attended this 2 hour show and the show was paid through a grant.  

The opening day meetings with the students went well. Students were given updates on changes to the handbook, procedures for entering and exiting the building, and behavior expectations for the year.

Transportation
We spoke with ODOT on the completion date of the 587/224 round-a-bout and it is projected to be completed by the end of September, which is about a week behind schedule.
