The BOE should also look into the other older buildings that have had leaking and flooding issues involving heat systems steam leakage, etc.
Coleytown Elementary's third and fourth grade wing, often the rooms facing the playground... and fifth grade wing have had flooding in carpeted rooms, including resource room areas and teacher offices.
Any school that has had buckets logistically placed in the hall to catch rain, or shows evidence of wall damage that starts at the ceiling should be worthy of a second 'glance'.
Now that the BOE is involved in oversight, maybe they can request these documents for review to be proactive in other buildings. -
Now it is number one on the [BOE meeting] agenda, years and stifled reports later! Why are these people still serving?

Thanks for keeping us posted!

It's been 4 days now. Is Harris tracking the old A/C down with the same enthusiasm with which she had it replaced?
Is she trying to be helpful? Or is she trying to obstruct the investigation?

In Westport's history, two older buildings have been renovated...the former Saugutuck School, now a condominium, and the former Bedford Middle School, currently Saugutuck Elementary.
It is possible that public records can be accessed to analyze any 'hot spots' at these two sites in order to help guide the current effort.
Bedford is probably the closest in location and the fact that it was inhabited up to the date of renovation makes it more comparable to King;s Highway.
Saugutuck was uninhabited for a period and fell into various stages of disrepair.
I don't know if this would help, simply an idea.
Thank you to all the parents and committee members who have worked so hard for a safe environment for our children.
Every parent should be thankful that this committee was organized outside the Board of Education. For years, the BOE has stonewalled parents, violated FOIA (hiding behind closed doors to make important decisions) and refused to provide any oversight to Mr. Landon. No member of this board should be reelected.
Gavin Anderson has provided a model to the BOE, as to how it should conduct its business.
