The Cherry Hill Public Schools Board of Education held a meeting on August 25, 2026, which included updates on ongoing capital improvement projects funded by bond work. The district reported significant summer construction activities across 13 of 18 school buildings, including new parking lots, playground installations, interior renovations at middle schools, HVAC upgrades, and security vestibule improvements. The board received detailed progress reports with photos on projects at various schools such as Horace Mann, James Johnson, Kilmer, Russell Knight, Karusi, Rosa, Beck, Barton, Kingston, Sharp, and the East Auditorium. Planning for next summer's projects was also discussed, including additional security vestibules and media center renovations. Additionally, the board approved several agenda items related to curriculum, instruction, human resources, and policies, including a new state-mandated cell phone restriction policy for students. The meeting also featured presentations on preschool program expansion and community engagement efforts. No specific contract awards or vendor selections were detailed in the transcript, but the extensive capital projects indicate ongoing procurement and construction management activities.
