🔧✨ District Master Facilities Plan Update! ✨🔧
We are pleased to announce our updates for the district's Master Facilities Plan for the month of September. Here’s what we are highlighting this month:
There have been new signs installed at the Cardinal Elementary School and Jr./Sr. High School! Nothing like a fresh coat of paint and some cleaning can do to the signs! 👏🏼 Thank you to Mr. Dave Krebs and his team for this update and to Middlefield Sign for their great work!
Be sure to look around town and check out the new street signs! With the help from the Middlefield Village and Police Department there are new signs installed around town and at the main intersections! 🚦
