During the summer months schools are closed, but that does not mean that there is no activity. Each summer the maintenance and technology staffs of Wayne School District work endless hours maintaining the buildings and updating the facilities. This year the district staff completed many projects that will improve the quality of our children’s education and their quality of life. One our big projects was to upgrade the playground facilities at our elementary schools. We removed many of the old pieces of equipment and added several new items. In Hanksville a new big toy was added, and soft wood chips we put under much of the play areas in Hanksville and Loa. Wayne Middle School replaced it old computer lab with the newest equipment. Boiler repairs were made at Loa Elementary. Many rooms in the district received new carpet including the high school auditorium. We have put up new shades in a number of classrooms in the middle and elementary school. New steps were poured for the county library that is attached to the district office. Many other projects have been completed so that our schools will be ready and safe when the new school year starts on August 23rd.
