Sherman Independent School Districts Board of Trustees will discuss the guaranteed maximum price for the district's transportation facility on Loy Lake Road when it meets at 7 p.m. Monday at Sherman High School's Little Theater, 220 E. Lamar.
Information in the agenda packet said that Plyler Construction has obtained pricing for the complete building of the structure which will house the district's transportation shop and grounds equipment. The recommended price for the metal building for the transportation and grounds project is $1,181,728 and the amended, guaranteed maximum price for the entire District Service Center Project is $11,289,458.
In addition, the group will hear an update on the plans for summer school for the coming school break and a discussion about the approval of textbooks in the Spring. Texas school districts have to approve the books that will be used in 2011 for Kindergarten through 12th grades.
Additionally, Trustees will consider approval of the telephone and computer network equipment for the New Education Service Center and the network wiring for that same building.
