Sacramento, CA - Sacramento City Unified provided an update today on construction projects occurring throughout the district this summer. Projects were prioritized according to SCUSD’s Facility Master Plan. This past spring, the California Coalition for Adequate School Housing (CASH) honored SCUSD with the Award of Excellence in Master Planning and called our Equity Based Master Plan a “refreshing and thoughtful approach”. The bulk of these construction projects occur in the summer months to avoid disruptions to student learning during the school year.

Updates for July 29, 2022:

• Caleb Greenwood hardcourt and utility replacement. The pictures that follow provide a visual update on the progress of the new seat wall under the tree by the field, the new outdoor stage and seat wall under oak tree in campus, and the kindergarten playground.

• The work on the Hiram Johnson Stadium includes grading for the bleachers, plaza, restrooms and the installation of utilities. The following pictures provide a visual of this week’s work.
