Maine’s RSU 40 advances nearly $25M high school renovation project

Medomak Valley High School will undergo a $24.9 million renovation featuring HVAC, electrical, safety and accessibility upgrades.

Supported by local voters, the district will now be able to move forward with projects to design and build new schools.

The 110,000-square-foot building will feature areas for training, recovery and injury prevention.

More than 70% of voters approved a $402.3 million bond to build a new school and make critical renovations to existing facilities.

The city of Lincoln said the new facility will be a 21st-century space that includes modern conveniences like gathering spaces and a coffee shop.

The project will expand ISU’s capacity to handle new programs, providing additional lecture, lab, research and collaborative learning spaces.

Northview Public Schools voters approved a 30-year, $74.6 million bond proposal that will fund upgrades across the district's facilities.

The district will dedicate a majority of the funds—$498.9 million—to build and rehabilitate educational facilities across multiple campuses.

The study shows opportunities to collaborate with public-private partnerships to enhance school facilities.

Campuses are aging and lack financial support for what the report calls the “inevitable entropic demands of buildings and their systems.”
