HARRINGTON – The school district has received a $3.25 million state grant for building repairs and upgrades, according to Superintendent Wayne Massie.

The funds will be used for a roof and roof mounted heating, ventilation and air conditioning system replacement.

“It’s a huge deal for our district,” Massie said “It’s been a lifesaver.”

Massie said the current roof leaks and the HVAC system has aged past its useful lifespan.

McKinstry, an energy savings and contractor management firm, has been selected by the school board to oversee the project.

Work is scheduled to begin in summer 2020.

Business from the Harrington School Board meeting of Wed, Jan. 29 included:

• The hiring of paraeducator Ashlee Green.

• School district policies on enrollment, excused and unexcused absences, students experiencing homelessness-enrollment rights and services and the Highly Capable Program.

• Title I parent involvement and the Consolidated School Improvement Plan.

• Selection of McKinstry as ESCO for roof project.
