Work to begin on new roof at Adrian R-3

Dear Parents and Community Members,
 
Our school building is about to undergo a major roofing project. This project is due to the hail storm that caused damage to so many buildings in Adrian last spring. Our insurance company agrees that the damage that occurred to the school roof allows us a complete roof replacement, the majority paid for by insurance. The good news is that we are getting an entirely new roof for a small, out-of-pocket cost to the district.  If we were to replace the roof without insurance help, this project could take 10 to 15 years to complete, and we would possibly need to run a bond issue to help pay for it. 
 
The roofing project is scheduled to begin in late November or early December and will continue throughout the spring. Work will be taking place on the roof during the school day; however, the roofing contractor will be working with us to try to keep the noise down during learning time.  All of the noisy tear off of the old roof will be done from 5:30 to 8:00 in the mornings before classes begin, but there will be some noise during learning time while installing the new roof and due to foot traffic upon the roof. It is our mission to carry on educating students without interruption.
 
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at the school.
 
Thank you
 
Don Lile
Adrian RIII Schools Superintendent
