Springfield City School District is about to start an estimated $6 million renovation for its high school track and football stadium.
Changes include a full track replacement, new and expanded bleacher seating, concrete and blacktop replacement and a new digital scoreboard.
Funding for the project will come from the district’s permanent improvement fund. This pot of money can only be used for non-recurring expenses that enhance the life and value of a district asset.
This fall, the stadium improvements are expected to be completed.
The public school district serves around 7,700 students preschool through grade 12.
