When faculty, staff and students returned to Cloverdale Community Schools earlier this month for the 2023-24 school year, they noticed quite a few upgrades at various buildings within the district. 

Upgrades include the installation of new carpet at Cloverdale Middle School and the central office. The new carpet in those buildings comes on the heels of new carpet placed down at the high school and elementary school the summer before. 

"In addition, we completely remodeled the CHS weight room, painted several classrooms and hallways, replaced several bridges on our nature trail and completed a huge clean-up campaign left behind by the summer storms. I am very pleased that we were able to compete these projects over the summer. It is always a very busy time of the year, but we always seem to get several large projects completed," superintendent Greg Linton told The Putnam County Post. 

According to Linton, the upgrades extend past this summer. 

"Next summer, we plan to install new secured entry ways at all three school building locations, replace tile flooring in the middle school and high school, remodel the elementary restrooms and, possibly, enhance/expand the Cloverdale High School gym entrance," Linton said.
