Maintenance

Preventive Maintenance Plan

Preventive Maintenance (PM) is a proactive program designed to ensure on-going operations of district facilities with minimal impact to the educational environment from unforeseen equipment failures.

The PM manual contains procedures and forms for completing inspections of each school's site, building structure, roof envelope, and all classrooms and common areas.  PM forms are to be completed by the custodians, maintenance staff, or the business & finance officer. 

Completed inspection forms are to be returned to the facilities director.  The condition of each facility as well as any concerns noted on the inspection forms will be addressed.
