• Improve the efficiency of building support systems like Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning and electrical services.
• Increase the useful lifespan of existing school buildings or facilities.
• Improve safety and security at instructional sites.

Scheduled 2023 summer projects:
• The Kent Prairie Traffic Safety project will provide a waiting area for familiesKP Dismissal picking up their students after school. It will provide a safe place off 204th Street and away from the school buildings for families to wait.

• Heating, ventilation and air conditioning improvements across the district
