Six change orders were approved for the Eisenhower Elementary School project at Monday night’s Indiana School Board meeting.
The six orders included construction fencing, plumbing to add wall hydrants, asbestos abatement, drywall installation and the furring out of walls, installation and grounding of a vault for the primary transformer and rerouting sanitary plumbing. Superintendent Robert Heinrich said that they are still on target for the project, and the additional funds are coming from a contingency fund for unexpected problems.
The board also approved a field trip request for some junior high french students and two chaperones to Montreal, Canada in late April or May of this year. This had been an annual trip for the French students, but has not been held in the past few years due to Covid-19 restrictions.
