The Keene Board of Education Facilities Committee met on November 3, 2026. The facilities director reported on several active projects and purchasing needs. Pricing is being sought for a budgeted grounds-department material-storage area, and the committee expects further details next month. At the Simon’s School Dick Kate Pavilion project, the pavilion has been delivered and vendor pricing is pending; the district hopes to select a vendor and complete the concrete work, subject to delays in city permitting. Wheelock’s window project is expected to begin in December, with installation planned around classroom use. Franklin Elementary’s unbudgeted ADA playground upgrades have been delivered, with some work planned before winter and the merry-go-round installation deferred until spring. The high school elevator repair by Stanley Elevator is complete, pending a Department of Labor inspection scheduled for November 23. CyberCom is installing radio equipment for district safety and energy upgrades, with operating procedures awaiting direction from the police department.

No procurement awards, spending approvals, or votes were recorded. The committee also discussed pending fire inspections, a facilities policy review concerning chemical safety plans, and follow-up questions on a school-meal overcharging policy; a food-services director may be asked to provide clarification. No rental requests were reported.
