Principal Updates Ms. Racasi got a preliminary budget from CPS Once she digests it and shares with LSC, she will sit down with us to establish a set of priorities based on the budget. Playground: Ms. Racasi has confirmed that their current plan is to focus on the Leavitt side to take down the stone furniture and open up the space so the kids have more room/safer room to play. She has confirmed with the previous facilities manager that the space by the storage unit is not going to be suitable at this time (staffing/monitor issues, will explain.) She wants to look into what paving options are available and get costs or volunteers to install as a future possibility.
