A Quick Overview

“Although we are projecting a decrease in elementary enrollments, we see a definite need to replace and update some of the existing elementary facilities to bring them up to contemporary educational standards.

Therefore, we are of the opinion that Barnstable should begin the process of considering additions and renovations to several elementary schools.”

Generally, the buildings have been well maintained. However, after a 40-50 year life, most of the components of the buildings are in need of repair, replacement or renovation. Architecturally, the exterior envelopes are deteriorating and require ongoing attention, while the interiors require upgrading of finishes which have worn out. … In general, the mechanical, fire protection, electrical and plumbing systems are outdated and are in need of some level of replacement.
