The Hamilton Southeastern School Board approved $14 million in projects Wednesday tied to a 10-year plan of maintaining and upgrading facilities.  A public hearing drew no speakers from the audience.

The work approved by the board includes:

  • Fall Creek Junior High – Security and Misc. Renovations – $8,824,534
  • Technology throughout the district – $1,000,000
  • Hamilton Southeastern High School – Repaving West lot and resurface running track $860,000

The board also voted to accept a bid for renovation of rest room facilities at the district’s transportation building of $215,000, well below the estimated cost of $350,000.  Board member Brad Boyer voted no on accepting the bid.
