Crews in Tullahoma have been working on school facilities paving the Bel-Aire Elementary School parking lot. Daryl Welch of the Board of Education said Friday that the paving provides a much-needed lift to the school system’s oldest building. The $35,000 paving project is being performed by Rogers Group. Workers have already performed a $40,000 air-conditioning upgrade project and $22,000 in new windows installed in the gym area.
The Board of Education has said it needs a new roof on Tullahoma High School that is estimated to cost more than $1 million but that was not included in the city’s budget for the new fiscal year.
