HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Nickerson-South Hutchinson USD 309 Superintendent Curtis Nightingale said they just about have everything to finish out the bond projects in the district.
"We're anticipating all the furnishings are being delivered Thursday of this week," Nightingale said. "With that, that should pretty much close everything out. We do have a couple of lingering items as we wait for materials to get shipped to us. But I would say at that point, we'll probably be around 95 to 98% done."
This is a process that has taken months to get done.
"We improved the secured access to each one of the buildings," Nightingale said. "In addition to that, we did the auditorium at the high school. We did the science rooms at the high school, we did replacement of a bunch of old windows at Reno Valley Middle School, updated their restrooms to ADA accessibility. Then at NES again, we did the secured access and then we added the daycare. Then at South Hutch, we added two classrooms. We have the two daycares, we just did some reconstruction on on those buildings to get that stuff ready to go."
Voters approved a $7.6 million bond in the spring of 2023.
