The Agua Fria High School District (AFHSD) in Arizona will spend $138 million to make critical school building improvements, campus repairs and improve learning environment safety measures.
The funds will support improvements to school buildings across the district’s existing campuses. These projects will support multi-phased remodeling and improvement initiatives across four of the campuses, focusing on modernizing their classrooms and buildings. The fifth campus will prioritize improving sound architecture in classrooms.
AFHSD will invest in the second phase of district-wide critical repairs. These repairs will upgrade facilities to meet student needs, including replacing or repairing aging systems like air conditioning, roofs and parking lots. Additional efforts will enhance technology infrastructure, buy new buses and install updated classroom furniture and equipment.
In addition to updating aging buildings, the district may also build another pool. The remaining funds will go toward improving school security measures and training for workforce development.
