Good Evening,
Facilities:
Maintenance repairs are still continuing as normal and are more reactive due to storms and cold related issues.
This past weekend we had an issue arise at the Garret Schenck School. This was due to many critical failures at the same time. Communication between software and our systems is what generated the issues in the beginning. Currently we have 2 pellet boilers down, one due to a circulator pump and the second for a pellet feed motor. We have ordered and will repair all the items as soon as possible. Regular updates have been submitted through the superintendent to the board.
Due to this failure we had a couple water lines in the kitchen burst. The kitchen floor drains maintained and redirected the water preventing further damage to parts of the school. Special thank you to Dee Ladd (Title 1 @ GSS) for coming out to assist in the cleanup. Dee helps out during our summer months in the cleaning of our schools. Dee has also helped out in the schools elsewhere when there is a sick call out from custodial staff.
Transportation:
Currently right now we are still operating without any major issues in transportation. Some of our vans are aging and have had a few major repairs on them recently. We will need to look to replace these in the future should the demand for them remain.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you,
Christopher Roux
Director of Operations
