School Board Members OK Playground Project
School board members in Mt. Lebanon approved reconstruction of the playground at Washington Elementary School, which includes security gates which will be closed during the school day.
The $150,000 construction project was approved April 13. Contractors will be on-site beginning in June, said Facilities Project Manager Rick Marciniak. The work should be complete in time for the opening of the 2009-2010 school year.
As far back as June 2008, the board received comments from parents who were divided over whether the security features were needed. At the time, school Principal Emily Kirkham said she favored the extra security features. The plans include security gating at Lawncroft at Mellon, along with steps at the upper playground, and gating between the Bognar Building and Washington school.
