🏫 Facility Focus: Litchfield Middle/High School

During the referendum planning process, we identified several infrastructure needs at Litchfield Middle/High School, including aging HVAC equipment, lighting systems, and other building components.

As part of Q2 in the proposed Nov. 3 referendum, we are proposing several improvements to address these needs including:

✅ Completing LED lighting upgrades throughout the building
✅ Upgrading building mechanical systems
✅ Replacing main gymnasium egress doors
✅ Remodeling the bathrooms and showers in our locker rooms
✅ Improving accessibility within the Special Education area
✅ Updating the HVAC system in the Family and Consumer Science (FACS) classroom

Visit RaisingDragonsBuildingFutures.org to learn more about the proposed improvements.

🏫 Enfoque de las Instalaciones: Litchfield Middle/High School

Durante el proceso de planificación del referéndum, identificamos varias necesidades de infraestructura en Litchfield Middle/High School, incluyendo equipos de climatización (HVAC) antiguos, sistemas de iluminación y otros componentes del edificio.

Como parte de la Pregunta 2 del referéndum propuesto para el 3 de noviembre, planteamos varias mejoras para atender estas necesidades, entre ellas:

✅ Realización de mejoras de iluminación LED en todo el edificio
✅ Actualización de los sistemas mecánicos del edificio
✅ Reemplazo de las puertas de salida del gimnasio principal
✅ Remodelación de los baños y duchas de nuestros vestidores
✅ Mejorar la accesibilidad dentro del área de Educación Especial
✅ Actualización del sistema HVAC en el aula de Ciencias de la Familia y del Consumidor (FACS)

🚗 Did You Know?

Throughout our planning process, one challenge we've identified and heard about from our community is limited parking at the Wagner Education Building. The current southeast parking lot often fills quickly, resulting in overflow parking on nearby streets and increased congestion during busy times.

As part of Question 2's building bond referendum, we are proposing to replace and expand the southeast parking lot to the athletic stadium fence line. This would provide additional parking capacity and help improve traffic flow around the building.


_____________________________________________________________________

🚗 ¿Sabía?

A lo largo de nuestro proceso de planificación, un desafío que hemos identificado y del que nos ha hablado nuestra comunidad es la limitada disponibilidad de estacionamiento en el Wagner Education Building. El actual estacionamiento sureste suele llenarse rápidamente, lo que provoca que los vehículos se estacionen en las calles cercanas y aumente la congestión durante los momentos de mayor afluencia.

Como parte del referéndum sobre bonos para infraestructura de la Pregunta 2, proponemos reemplazar y ampliar el estacionamiento sureste hasta la línea de la cerca del estadio deportivo. Esto proporcionaría capacidad de estacionamiento adicional y ayudaría a mejorar el flujo vehicular alrededor del edificio.
