What are some of the safety procedures in place during the construction process?

The health and safety of students, staff and visitors during construction is the District’s main priority. The High School and campus will be under surveillance 24 hours, 7 days a week. The District has also hired Safety Zone as safety consultants for the project. They will visit construction sites unannounced to ensure safe conditions. Students will be separated from construction at all times. While on the premises all contractor personnel are required to wear special identification badges. In addition, outside bathroom facilities will be available for contractor use.

The District would like to keep the High School available to the community as much as possible during construction. Each request will be decided independently with consideration of the location, construction status, and safety.
