Hampshire Elementary Unveils New Floor as Part of District-Wide Facility Improvements

The CUSD 300 Board of Education meeting on August 26, 2025, highlighted significant strides in improving educational facilities across the district. A key focus was the completion of various renovation projects, including a new, brighter floor at Hampshire Elementary School. This upgrade not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the school but also simplifies maintenance, allowing staff to save valuable time.

The board emphasized that these improvements span the entire 118 square mile district, directly benefiting both students and staff. "Kudos to the board for its continued commitment to improving our educational facilities," a board member remarked, underscoring the importance of these enhancements.

Funding for these projects has primarily come from the district's cash reserves, which have been strategically built over the years. This financial commitment ensures that all school buildings receive equitable access to safe, secure, and modern learning environments. As the district wraps up these projects, the focus remains on fostering an educational atmosphere that supports the needs of every student.
