A Letter from the Superintendent

Dear Raiders,

On December 5, 2023, residents of the Caledonia-Mumford Central School District will vote on a capital improvement project with NO ADDITIONAL TAX IMPACT. The project, spanning both the Elementary and Middle/High School buildings, features a comprehensive range of enhancements aimed at modernizing and improving the educational facilities within the district.

For the Elementary School, these improvements include the establishment of a state-of-the-art Library Innovation Center, reconfiguration of the main entry and office areas, security enhancements to ensure the safety of students and staff, roof and window replacement, auditorium upgrades, boiler replacement, and the resurfacing of parking lots and driveways. These upgrades collectively aim to create a more conducive and secure environment for learning, with a focus on technological innovation and infrastructure reliability.

The Middle/High School project mirrors these goals by incorporating a Library Innovation Center renovation, main entry and office reconfiguration, additional security enhancements, auditorium improvements, PA system upgrades for better communication and educational experiences, and the resurfacing of the middle/high driveway.

By addressing these critical elements, the district aims to ensure that students have access to the best possible learning environment, all while assuring residents that this project will be undertaken without imposing any additional tax burden.

Please vote on Tuesday, December 5, from 12-9 p.m. in the District Office. Upon a successful vote, the District will begin the Capital Project in late spring 2025, and it is anticipated that the project will be completed by December 31, 2026. Thank you for your continued support and partnership.

Sincerely,

Robert Molisani

Superintendent of Schools

Cal-Mum Board of Education Planning for Capital Project

The Caledonia-Mumford Central School District Board of Education is in the final stages of planning for a 2025-2026 capital improvement project. The board is expected to adopt the resolution to move forward with the project at the Oct. 10, 2023 board meeting.

The 2025-2026 capital project is a long-term investment in preserving our facilities. The Board of Education has been hard at work to have a plan in place that will address the needs of the district in a fiscally responsible manner.

Project work at the Elementary School will consist of:

• STEAM renovations in the library;
  a reconfigured main office to provide enhanced security;
  window, roof and pavement replacements; and
  auditorium and infrastructure improvements.

The Middle/High School project will involve:

• STEAM renovations in the library,
• a reconfigured main entry to provide increased security,
• auditorium and infrastructure improvements, and
• PA system upgrades.

The 2025-2026 capital project is a prudent long-term investment in preserving our facilities, and we have an established plan in place to pay for the work in the most fiscally responsible manner. The goal is to protect investments already made by our community, as well as to prepare our

facilities to meet future needs. As a result, project improvements will bolster the educational, health, and safety needs of our students with NO TAX IMPACT on the residents in our community.

Proposed project details will be discussed in greater length during the Oct. 10, 2023 board meeting at 6:00 p.m. in the Middle/High School Choral Room. All district residents are welcome.
