Thank YouThe Winfield R-IV School Board of Education, administration, and staff would like to thank the community for your support of our $8 million bond issue that passed this past April. Planning is under way and this summer you will begin to see the “work” taking place. We have been meeting weekly with our construction management consultant and the architects to discuss the elements of the Intermediate renovation, track and football field, and transportation facility. We are considering long range use of the district grounds and future growth of the district as well as the details of the present projects. Presently the design and location of the transportation facility is furthest along due to the facility being a more of a “stand alone” project. We are planning on this structure to be located on the west end of the property near the water tower. By utilizing this location, growth options will not be limited at the high school. Plans are under way at the Intermediate school to remove the flooring as a preparation step to the major renovation that will take place during the school year and next summer. We continue to look at floor plan options for the Intermediate school taking in classroom size, availability of natural lighting, room use, removal of non-load bearing walls, and future classroom needs. At the high school the discussion of the track and football field have taken into account future expansion of parking areas, the effect additional students will have on the cafeteria and other services that support all students. Through these discussions we have moved the track and football field further south to accommodate future parking. We have even discussed the field orientation due to the setting sun. The majority of the work completed has dealt with selecting firms to lead the design and renovation of the facilities. This has included the land surveyor, soil sampling, environmental inspections, and other mechanical needs. We are in the process of completing several of these projects that will then allow others to move forward. Please visit the district website for periodic updates.
