Increase in price of tin not impacting Massena Central School capital project

MASSENA — Although there’s been a 30% increase in the price of tin, that hasn’t impacted the Massena Central School District’s $49.6 million capital project. James Francesconi, senior project manager for C&S Companies, the district’s construction management firm, told board of education members that Northern Mechanicals was seeing an increase in a couple of other projects. The firm was awarded the mechanical construction contract for the Massena Central project. “They haven’t reported that yet on this project, obviously. I think it’s because they got ahead of the game. They’re starting sooner rather than later,” Mr. Francesconi said.

Massena Central School Board approves hiring of second occupational therapist

MASSENA — Anticipating that some students may need extra assistance when school resumes in the fall, the Massena Central School District’s Board of Education has approved the hiring of a second occupational therapist. “The Office of Special Services has requested for us to have another district occupational therapist to meet the needs of our students. Currently, we have one occupational therapist and we also receive services through an outside provider,” Superintendent Patrick Brady said. During a previous meeting, he had presented the board with a list of personnel requests using federal funding to address areas such as learning loss and social and emotional learning during the pandemic. Among them and using $674,880 in pre-kindergarten funding, the district plans to convert from a half-day to a full-day pre-kindergarten program. That would mean the addition of three teachers and three teacher assistants at a cost of $465,000.

Massena school district officials opt for two roofing contracts for one contractor

MASSENA — Although one contractor will be doing roof work on multiple schools this summer as part of the second phase of the Massena Central School District’s $49.6 million capital project, officials have opted to sign two contracts rather than one. One contract covers work at Nightengale Elementary School, Massena Central High School and J.W. Leary Junior High School. The second contract covers work at Jefferson and Madison elementary schools. “After much discussion, we decided to go with two separate contracts. Though it is more paperwork for all involved, the two contracts makes clear that we will have two separate crews and leadership on the project. After the delays we experienced with Jefferson Elementary, it is probably best we keep the pressure on to ensure we have the manpower and appropriate attention to each roof in the project,” Superintendent Patrick Brady said.
