This morning, I confirmed with the school system’s director of physical facilities that Seven Oaks Elementary School will receive air conditioning in 2013.
“Seven Oaks is included in a group of four schools that we hope to complete through an Energy Performance Contract program (the first phase of perhaps three). It was included as part of the group of schools that were evaluated to fit into the program,” Baltimore County Public Schools physical facilities director Michael Sines responded to an inquiry I made.
Although it was built in the early 1990s, air conditioning was not included as part of the original structure.
Air conditioning at the school has been a top priority for me and the four state legislators who represent the area, Senator Kathy Klausmeier and Delegates Joe Boteler, Eric Bromwell, and John Cluster. I would like to thank them for their bipartisan support of this project, and especially Superintendent S. Dallas Dance and his team.
