Facilities and Maintenance strives to maximize the use and efficiency of the district’s facilities by providing timely and cost-effective repair and maintenance to ensure school buildings and grounds are clean, safe, sanitary, and comfortable, while effectively managing contract and regulatory compliance requirements based on district standards.
