March 2025 Update
It's been a productive six months since Tenafly voters approved our referendum, and we're actively planning and scheduling the upcoming work. Here are the projects set to begin in spring and summer 2025 (exact start and completion dates may vary):
Security vestibules at all six schools
Ceiling replacements at elementary schools
Elevator and flooring replacements at Stillman
Gym upgrades at TMS and THS, including new flooring, bleachers, and wall mats
Locker replacements at TMS
Unit ventilator replacements at THS
Please note: THS, TMS, Stillman and Mackay will be closed this summer due to the work being done.
Several additional projects are in development, with anticipated start dates in late 2025 or 2026. These include: the Smith drainage project; elementary additions and related improvements, Maugham boiler replacement; elementary and TMS HVAC and unit ventilator replacements; TMS cafeteria expansion; TMS and THS auditorium upgrades; TMS and THS locker room renovations; THS multi-sport field; Geissinger fieldhouse and track; roof and window replacements (including window film) district-wide. We'll continue to keep you updated as progress unfolds.
The next two summers will be especially busy as we work to complete the majority of our planned construction. The district administration and Board of Education thank the Tenafly community for your support through this process. We look forward to the improvements that will maintain the strength and value of our schools.
