Funding for Facility Projects

Centerville Schools' facilities include 1.3 million square feet of space in 15 buildings. To finance the maintenance and modernization of these facilities, the district relies on its Permanent Improvement Fund as its primary source of funding. Additionally, the district actively seeks grant opportunities to supplement its financial resources.

Permanent Improvement Fund

The Permanent Improvement (PI) Fund is designated for addressing building repairs, renovations, maintenance, and other long-term improvements needed for school facilities. PI funds are approved through local tax levies, and the district receives an annual budget of approximately $4.5 million for these purposes. PI funds are separate from the district's operating fund.

During the past school year, PI Funds were used for a variety of maintenance projects and safety enhancements. Here are highlights from some recent projects that were paid for with PI funds.

Other grant funding is sought by the district as frequently as possible to supplement its financial resources.

Here are some recent projects that were paid for primarily with grant funding.
