Why is Doniphan-Trumbull using a Construction Manager for the proposed school improvement project?

Building or renovating a school is a big undertaking, and careful planning is crucial.

A Construction Manager (CM) works alongside the district and architects from the early planning stages through the completion of construction.

Here's how that helps:
Keeps costs in check. Provides updated cost estimates as plans develop to help keep the project within budget.
- Finds the best value. Helps evaluate building materials and systems based on cost, quality and long-term performance.
- Encourages competitive bidding. All construction trades are publicly bid, with opportunities for local contractors to compete. The Board of Education reviews every bid.
= Oversees construction. Coordinates schedules, construction phases, safety and quality throughout the project.


Have more questions about the proposed school bond? You'll find the answer to this question and many others, along with project plans, a tax impact estimator and more, at: https://dtcardinals.bondinformation.org

We encourage everyone to explore the information and learn more about the proposal before the November 3 election.

Did you know that 10 programs at Doniphan-Trumbull currently operate in spaces such as closets, storage rooms, doubled-up classrooms, or hallways?

The proposed school improvement project addresses several space and facility challenges.

The plan includes modern, properly ventilated career and technical education facilities, including shop and agriculture spaces. It also provides dedicated rooms for students needing small-group instruction and additional support.

A new cafeteria and properly sized kitchen would accommodate the school's food service needs and allow the west gym to be used for physical education and recess rather than meal service.

See what's included in the proposal: https://dtcardinals.bondinformation.org.
