The list was compiled after several meetings among committee members and the Jamestown community at-large, including a town hall meeting in May. The committee\u2019s priorities are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Capital maintenance plan<\/li>\n<li>Improve heating, ventilation, air conditioning and temperature controls (HVAC)<\/li>\n<li>Improve safety and security<\/li>\n<li>Closing Washington Elementary and adding on to Louis L\u2019Amour Elementary<\/li>\n<li>Update and remodel Transition House<\/li>\n<li>Relocate high school activities (football and track) to the high school campus<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How to best accomplish these priorities will be part of the committee\u2019s ongoing discussion, in which the Jamestown community is encouraged to participate. Later this summer or early fall, the committee expects to make a recommendation to the Jamestown School Board for its consideration.<\/p>\n<p>JPS Superintendent Rob Lech says, \u201cAs a committee, we have thoroughly reviewed the facility needs across Jamestown Public Schools, including several conversations with school staff and community members, and believe this list of priorities is the best, most effective way to ensure education in Jamestown remains top-notch long into the future.\u00a0 While we continue to work on finer details among these priorities, we look forward to presenting our plan to the School Board later this year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the Citizens Advisory Committee or to participate in its ongoing efforts, visit its Facebook page, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/buildingourfutureinjamestown\/\">Building Our Future Community Forum<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 \u00a0The Citizens Advisory Committee discussing Jamestown Public Schools (JPS) decided on its official list of priorities to enhance the future of JPS.
