Railing repairs at Muller Elementary's modular classrooms are a part of an extensive overhaul of the buildings.
Modular classrooms at the Ulla F. Muller Elementary School in need of repairs were overhauled this summer, rendering the two buildings more secure and welcoming for
students and teachers in the 2016-17 School Year.
The completion of the large-scale projects, commencing on June 28 and ending in early August, is in line with the Virgin Islands Department of Education’s commitment to year-round maintenance of its school buildings. In-house maintenance crews in the St. Thomas-St. John district, under the leadership of Charlesworth McCarty, director of maintenance and plant operations, performed extensive exterior repairs to the railings and walkways of the buildings, as well as repairs to the buildings’ interior. Both buildings were also pressure washed, roof repairs were completed to eradicate leaks and fresh paint was applied to their interiors.
The cost of the projects amounted to $6,000 in local funds.
Students and teachers with classes in Rooms #9 and #17 will also enjoy a cooler environment. Both classrooms were outfitted with new five-ton air conditioning split units. Roof repairs were also completed on various buildings and classrooms throughout the campus.
