I’m thankful for the Fort Osage School District and the opportunity to work with such dedicated and caring people. The district is filled with individuals who have a passion for students and their success. I’m excited to work cooperatively with each person to continue to do great things for the students of our district. Thank you for the countless things you do on a daily basis to make our school the special place we call Fort. The information below is the tentative construction schedule for the projects approved in the April 2021 election. The projects are subject to change based on weather conditions, manufacturing and shipping schedules. District Transportation/Maintenance/Technology/Central Office Building: The grading at the site has been completed. The Board accepted the bids for the new central office, transportation, and maintenance building. Additionally, the Board accepted a bid to include additional space to house the district’s technology department. The technology portion of the building would not be fully completed until a later date. Work on the brick and mortar central office building will begin soon. There is currently a delay in the manufacturing and shipping of the transportation, maintenance and technology pre-engineered metal building. Once that is received in the spring it will be constructed. Kitchen Renovations: The kitchens at Blue Hills, Fire Prairie, Buckner and Osage Trail are being designed and work will be performed in the summer of 2022. Work on the kitchens at Cler-Mont, Elm Grove, Indian Trails and the high school will be done in the summer of 2023.
