Currently, car rider students at Bondurant Middle School are exposed to the elements when arriving and leaving the school each day. On rainy days, this especially creates issues for students who have to begin their day in wet clothes.

For this reason, we would like to construct an awning that spans from the pavement to the side entrance of the school where car riders and walkers enter/exit. 

To ensure the awning meets code and regulations, Ross Tarrant Architects will provide drawings for KDE and HBC.  Our maintenance department will construct the awning, which will eliminate the need to bid the project and reduce the cost of construction. This will be a future project.
