Concerns over project timelines dominated the recent Tangipahoa Parish School System meeting, as officials discussed delays affecting several construction projects. The discussion highlighted the need for contractors to submit paperwork for time extensions due to unforeseen circumstances, including weather-related delays.

Key projects, including Greenville Park, Spring Creek, Summerlin, and Roseland, are currently behind schedule, raising alarms among school leaders. "Greenville Park is probably the furthest over," one official noted, emphasizing the urgency of addressing these delays. The team is actively working to catch up, but the timeline remains a significant concern.

Hammond High School is also in the early stages of construction, with officials confirming that they are just beginning the process of submittals. The principal raised issues regarding damage to ceiling tiles during volleyball games, indicating that immediate attention is needed to ensure the facility meets safety standards.

As the school system navigates these challenges, the focus remains on getting all projects back on track to avoid further delays. The outcome of these discussions will be crucial in determining the future of the school facilities and their readiness for students.
