The Sunnyvale School District is undertaking a plethora of construction projects on its campuses this summer, with the goal of completing them before staff and students return in August.

To extend the life of its asphalt surfaces, the district is performing slurry seal maintenance on its campuses, with a color slurry option designed to reduce the temperature of asphalt play surfaces.

Digital marquees will be installed at campuses across the district that don’t already have them. The marquees are mean to “enhance communication efficiency” within school communities.

A four-year modernization project at Ellis Elementary School is nearing completion, and the modernization of Sunnyvale Middle School is underway with the construction of a two-story classroom building.

Blach Construction has already demolished select portables at the middle school, and construction on what the district calls “a state-of-the-art learning environment” will continue throughout the school year.

While students are away, the district’s maintenance team is busy replacing HVAC filters, tuning up equipment and replacing old units. The district’s custodial team is cleaning at all 10 schools in the district, including 542,000 square feet of classrooms, 46,000 square feet of libraries, 87,609 square feet of multi-purpose rooms and kitchen space and 31,400 square feet of restrooms.

The transportation department is receiving two new electric buses this summer, bringing the district’s fleet to 75% electric, with 100% of the fleet using clean fueling sources.
