The Bluffton-Harrison MSD school community will begin to see a lot of activity on campus this spring as students get closer to the end of the academic year and BHMSD ramps up multiple construction projects.
In February and March, overhead field lights at the Fred F. Park Field were replaced. Then on April 1, contractors with FCI Construction began to deliver materials for the Bluffton High School roof replacement and building envelope projects.
Beginning this month, the roof replacement project will get underway, as will tuck pointing and masonry repairs. Metal wall panel installation will follow in June and window installation will follow in July. Overall, the project will continue through the fall and early winter months with a tentative completion date in December.
FCI signage will be visible on Wayne Street, and construction crews will use the north entrance near the BHMSD Transportation Building. Construction materials will be staged in the north staff parking lot throughout the project. At this time, normal commute routes for students, car ridersand buses should not be impacted by the ongoing work.
The tentative schedule for additional projects on the BHMSD campus this spring and summer is as follows:
• Removal of track turf from May 15 (following last track meet) to May 30.
• Mill/surface track: May 31 to June 5
• Install turf: June 6 to July 4
• Install track: July 5 to Aug. 5
