Cornell Middle/High School Site Plan & Renderings: The District is currently developing tentative site plans and renderings for proposed new construction at the Cornell Middle/High School. This work is being done in collaboration with CESA 10 Facilities Management and River Valley Architects to refine floor plans and gather preliminary cost estimates. These plans are part of a proposal that will only move forward if approved by voters in the April 2026 referendum. While cost estimates are not yet finalized, they will be shared with the community once available. Please note that the site plans and renderings are preliminary and subject to change.

Cornell Facility Audit: The District hired an outside vendor to come in and assess our facilities. The facility audit identified numerous facility improvement measures. The recommendations in this report aim to improve failing and inefficient equipment, systems, and facilities and reduce energy consumption. Additionally, this report provides cost estimates associated with each improvement measure. The report recommendations are meant to assist with maximizing capital investment impact, advance our learning environment, conserve energy, and reduce operating and maintenance costs.
