Principal’s Report

  • Facilities Update
    • Building 300
      • Demolition has been completed and the final estimate for renovations is being sent to the insurance adjustor.  Because the roof repair has already been approved, it is in process and should be completed by the end of the week.  Presidio will cover the cost of replacement/repair of the fascia and the painting of the fascia and eves as those repairs were a result of maintenance, not storm damage.
      • Once the roof has been completed, DC, JM, and RL will meet with Titan to discuss possible remodeling ideas for building 300 (that are outside of the scope of work covered by insurance).  Presidio will be responsible for any costs associated with remodel, not remediation. 
    • 1695 Campus/Play It Safe
    • Water Bottle Refilling Stations
      • All water bottle refilling stations were installed over Rodeo Break.  There is some minor touch up painting that needs to be done, but otherwise this project has been completed.  Presidio plans to install one more water bottle refilling station on Building 300 after the remodel/renovation is complete.
  • Employee Update
    • Director of Aftercare
      • Presidio welcomed a new Director of Aftercare to the Presidio Family.  SC has a wealth of knowledge running DES preschool programs and has hit the ground running.  She is currently working 30 hours/week and has implemented a curriculum that aligns with Presidio’s Social Emotional Learning.
    • Formal Observations
      • Formal teacher observations are occurring during the months of March and April.  Directors of Curriculum and Instruction and the Principal are conducting observations
    • Letters of Continued Employment
      • Staff who are being asked back for the SY23/24 school year will receive Letters of Continued Employment after Spring Break.
