Mendham Township School District Moves Forward with Referendum Work 

As this marking period comes to an end, MTSD is preparing for another summer of growth and construction following the successful bond referendum.

We are proud to announce that M&M Construction Co. was awarded the bid to complete this summer’s projects and is expected to finish this current phase of construction promptly and efficiently before the start of the 2024-25 school year. M&M will begin the process at the schools in late May by moving equipment and materials on site and the work will commence in mid-June - between June 17 and 24.

Construction in June at both schools will begin with gutting instructional spaces and then prepping them for upgrades to electrical wiring, sprinkler systems, and other minor mechanical features for installation in July. Framing for the new instructional spaces at the middle school will begin June 24.
