million for capital improvements for San Luis Obispo High School, Morro Bay
High School and smaller improvements to elementary and middle schools within
San Luis Obispo Unified School District.
Dr. Pruitt said that MBHS was
in dire need of a new design to enhance security while upgrading the technology
capabilities. Pruitt also stated that a community pool, upgraded HVAC, plumbing
upgrades ( 20% of school water useage is leakage), updated classroom design and
more desirable sight lines were in the offing with the passage of Measure D.
