The Fillmore Central Board of Education hired BVH in February 2023 to conduct an initial facilities audit of the district. There were two parts to this audit: BVH went through each building and building system and met with staff to listen and gather input on our current educational alignment within our facilities. We held three community meetings, during which we presented the findings of the comprehensive Facility Audit and Educational Alignment Study. These studies identified critical needs within our school facilities and proposed potential solutions to meet those needs effectively. Throughout the course of the three meetings, we asked for community feedback through two surveys. The board worked with BVH architecture to adjust the draft solutions based on the feedback they received at these meetings and through the surveys. On December 16, 2024, the Fillmore Central Board of Education approved and adopted a resolution calling for a special election to be held in the District on March 11, 2025 relating to the issuance by the District of its General Obligation School Building Bonds, Series 2025, in an amount not to exceed $48,800,000, to finance the costs of constructing certain additions to and renovations of its existing High School Building, an addition to replace the existing Middle School, a gymnasium addition and other building improvements, and for renovations and additions at the Elementary School Building and related costs thereto.

How about some local honey? 3 of our FC FFA members, Preston, Collin, and Wyatt, took it upon themselves to compete in the Marketing Plan Career Development Event. The purpose is to find out if an existing business should add to their current operation. They chose adding honey production to a farmer’s business. Please complete the survey so that “Blue River Bees” can have some real life data to know of this addition would be good for his business. It should take just a few minutes. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd6sIU-edAefmP6Y_xERN8G88lt7UgeiwL_CsxmU-1TbGYq7g/viewform?usp=sharing We would love your input and anyone else’s - shares are appreciated.

The two-story middle school addition came about through the community meetings, surveys, and staff input. One of the things that the board heard loud and clear was that our community really likes the fact that the middle school students are not only separated from other grades in their current building, but that the 5th and 6th grade has their own classroom area separate from the 7th and 8th grade classroom area. A two-story solution allows for each age group to continue having their own classroom areas. The 5th and 6th floor and the 7th and 8th floor would each have their own restrooms, locker areas, classrooms, and commons. This will allow the culture that our community values to continue in a new building. It is a school-within-a-school concept. Not having to do as much dirt work to the west for a one-story addition would save enough money to pay for the stairs and elevator that would be required in a two-story addition.

Coming to a positive solution for the Village of Fairmont and City of Geneva and other district patrons is a top priority of the board. If there is a successful bond issue, the board can then enter into serious and detailed discussions regarding the best strategy for all regarding the two facilities. There will likely be at least two or three years to make these decisions if the bond passes before these facilities will no longer be used by the district.
