Beginning June 11, four days after schools close for the summer, Camino Pablo and Donald L. Rheem Elementary will begin major construction improvements on campus thanks to funds from Measure V.
Five portable classrooms have already been installed at both locations. Renovations to the 50-plus-year-old schools include strengthening seismic integrity of buildings, modernizing classrooms and offices, improving safety conditions and upgrading restrooms, plumbing, mechanical units and utilities.
Many teachers have occupied the same classroom for several years and have accumulated countless amounts of materials and supplies that will need to be packed up before the renovations, and then unpacked again to use during the next school session. To that end, a battalion of volunteers from the community are planning to pitch in and help.
Executive Assistant to the Superintendent Jennifer Baier stated, "My principals say they have plenty of help from their PTA parents. They are in good shape for packing and we have professional movers moving all boxes to storage."
Citizens are cautioned that while renovations are in progress both campuses will have heavy and dangerous equipment on the premises, making fields and playgrounds possibly unsafe for play.
Los Perales Elementary and Joaquin Moraga Intermediate schools are scheduled for renovations and improvements during the summer of 2020.
