$140M worth of summer campus maintenance projects underway

Crews construct one of three new covered walkways at ʻAiea Elementary over the summer break.

While students and teachers have been on summer break, facilities crews have been working on more than 150 campus maintenance projects at Hawaiʻi’s public schools statewide. From flooring, roofing, air conditioning and pavement repairs to electrical, plumbing and painting improvements, the work is focused on extending the lifespan of school facilities while creating environments where students can focus on learning and achieve their academic goals.

The summer break provides an ideal window to complete critical work that could disrupt teaching and learning during the school year. Completing these projects during the summer minimizes impacts on students and staff from construction noise, dust and other disruptions that might interfere with classroom instruction and daily school operations.

Over $140 million dollars is dedicated to maintenance projects underway this summer to provide preventive repairs, safety upgrades and building maintenance designed to keep school facilities safe, functioning and ready to support student success.

By investing in essential maintenance, the Hawai’i State Department of Education is helping ensure campuses remain safe, functional and welcoming for students and teachers when they return for the new school year.
