Today was one of our favorite days! We welcomed all of our new staff members in the district for orientation. Together we learned, laughed, built new relationships, and toured the main campus. We are so glad to add these new members to our team! 💜💛

Information from the 8-1-23 1:05 p.m. all-call:
Good afternoon! This week on our main campus you will notice police presence while law enforcement officers are conducting drills. We want everyone to be aware that they are only conducting drills, and that nothing is wrong. We appreciate the hard work and support of our local law enforcement as they practice protocols to keep our students and staff members safe.
The First Presbyterian Church will be hosting the annual Back to School Bash on Saturday, August 12, from 8:00 until 11:00 a.m. This drive-thru event provides an opportunity for students in preschool through twelfth grade to receive a free backpack full of supplies. We appreciate the support of the Presbyterian Church and all of the community organizations who have contributed supplies for the event.
We are excited to welcome our students back soon! Open house for all buildings will be held on Tuesday, August 15. All elementary buildings will hold their open house sessions from 5:00 until 6:00 p.m. The Greenfield Middle School open house will be held from 5:30 until 6:30 p.m. McClain High School will hold its open house for all grades and freshman orientation from 6:00 until 7:00 p.m. The first day for students in grades 1-12 will be August 17. Start dates and times for preschool and kindergarten students are staggered and will be communicated to parents and guardians.
Be on the lookout for the McClain Mailer, which will be delivered to all homes in our district within the next couple of weeks. Again, we are excited to welcome back our students and kick off the 2023-2024 school year!

Drumroll, please...🥁🥁🥁
TODAY BROUGHT SOD! 👏🏼
The team placing the sod worked into the evening, and weather pending, the work is expected to be finished quickly.
Also set to be finished in the next couple of days is the digging of the aggregate piers. The large piece of equipment digs down into the ground at each one of the 496 flags. It is used to clear the holes and then fill them with gravel.
Finally, the delivery date for the custom designed steel frame building has been moved up to September 29.
The pictures show three stages of sod placement and the equipment completing the aggregate piers.
We welcome questions and will continue to keep you updated. 😊

Weather put a damper on things a little as the irrigation work couldn't be completed in the mud. Now things are moving along, and the work should be completed in the next day or two. 👏🏼
Temporary electricity will be ran to the irrigation system in order to keep the sod watered as it "takes" to the soil.
What are those white pipes coming up out of the ground in the field area? In each one is a sprinkler head, and they protect the heads from being damaged during sod installation.
The work to date has focused primarily on the fields and the perimeter of the site. Yesterday, work began on the building area. A survey crew from McCarty Associates arrived onsite to "locate" the building. They utilized lasers and GPS technology to locate not only the corners of the new building, but also all of the footings required to support the building. In the coming days the site contractor will excavate all of the footings and dig aggregate piers that will be placed under each footing. This work is intended to ready the soil to support the building.
Can you guess how many flags were placed? We will allow a few days for guesses before updating the post with the answer. 😄
We welcome questions and will continue to keep you updated. 😊
