Presentation
 The
summer construction projects at Port Jervis schools are
progressing on schedule. As part of our efforts to enhance
school safety, secure vestibule entrances are being added to the
front of Hamilton Bicentennial Elementary School and the two
schools at the Route 209 Complex.
Additionally, crews are finishing the window replacement
project, replacing classroom heat/ventilation units district
wide to improve air quality and energy efficiency, renovating
five science classrooms, and making other needed upgrades at
Port Jervis High School. The majority of the summer projects
were part of the Capital Renovation and Safety Project approved
by voters in February 2010.
