Based on the District's Selection Committee recommendation, the School Board awarded the design build contract to W & J Construction Corporation as the top-ranked firm.

The requested action is to approve the recommended award. Future Board actions will consider the contract approval, preconstruction services and construction services. The project is funded through impact fees.
