Water Conservation Efforts

  • Custodial/Grounds Services is following and enforcing the guidelines set by Governor Cox.
  • We have raised our mower deck height to 4 inches. Keeping the sod longer will help retain moisture.
  • We utilize Smart Clocks to determine our water run times based on temperature, wind, humidity evaporation rate, and type sprinkler heads and nozzles. Water times vary from day to day, as necessary to maintain healthy turf.
  • Facility Managers walk their fields daily, looking for problem areas.
  • We actively watch for new guidelines and restrictions from city, county and state leaders.
  • We use a slow-release fertilizer to help control growth while keeping the turf healthy.
  • We utilize core aeration on all non-sports fields and deep tine aeration on all sports fields, at least twice a year.

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

If a movie about super teachers were ever made, Lucie Chamberlain would be a prime candidate for a leading role. Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
