Meridian Elementary Bond Projects
Meridian Elementary is slated to receive a wide range of improvements through the 2024 bond, with between $3.4 million and $4.1 million in total investment.
Inside the building, classroom, library and office furnishings will be replaced to create more flexible and engaging learning spaces. Bond-funded safety enhancements include upgraded fire alarms, intercoms, classroom door locks and exterior door sensors.
Technology improvements are also planned, including faster Wi-Fi and new network cabling to strengthen IT infrastructure and ensure reliable connectivity. Building systems will also be modernized through the bond, including heating and cooling equipment, water supply components and interior lighting.
Outside the building, students will benefit from playground updates and improvements to asphalt and parking areas. These upgrades will ensure Meridian continues to provide a safe and supportive place to learn and grow.
Projected construction budget:
$3.4 million to $4.1 million
Bond Investment Areas at Meridian Elementary
The 2024 bond is focused on improving and updating facilities across the district. All bond projects will benefit students, staff and the community by investing in our buildings and – by extension – investing in our community. These investments vary from paving and resurfacing projects to major interior and exterior overhauls to update school furnishings and finishes.
All schools are also receiving comprehensive IT upgrades through the 2024 bond. These upgrades will support faster network connections and support advanced classroom tools. IT projects will also boost school safety and security, with improved security cameras, exterior door sensors and updated safety systems.
