Temperatures will continue to soar into the 80s next week as teachers at many schools continue to rely on fans, water shutoffs, open doors and windows, outdoor shade trees and other means to reduce temperatures a degree or two. According to the district’s website for renovation and construction projects funded by Bond Measures E and K, schools still awaiting full heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) installation include Bancroft Middle School and Holmes Elementary School, and two are scheduled to have air-conditioning ready by next summer and Avalon K-12 in Catalina, which will be air-conditioned by the winter of 2023. Voters in 2016 approved Measure E $1.5 billion to fund HVAC and turf fields and other athletic facilities. Voters passed the $1.2 billion Measure K to modify some campus facilities and renovate or build on some smaller campuses like Sato Academy and Browning Middle School. In November, voters will decide on Measure Q, which would raise $1.7 billion to update older classrooms and improve plumbing systems, remove lead and asbestos, provide safe drinking water and cover of accessibility requirements for people with disabilities. The timeline for installation continues through 2029. Here are the expected school years for HVAC installation completion at the remaining schools still struggling with classroom heat: 2024-2025: Birney Elementary, Emerson Elementary, Gompers Elementary. 2025-2026: Stanford High School, Washington High School, Millikan High School. 2026-2027: Gant Elementary, Los Cerritos Elementary, Tincher Preparatory. 2027-2028: Carver Elementary, Marshall Middle School. 2028-2029: Buffum Total Learning Center, Burroughs Head Start, Henry Elementary, Hoover Middle School. 2029-2030: Sato Academy, Monroe Elementary, Tucker Special Education, Beach Elementary.
