New Mallett School nearly ready; demolition of old school imminent
FARMINGTON — Heavy equipment and workers in hard hats are on the move everywhere at the new W. G. Mallett School building site on Middle Street with one focus — to get it ready for opening day on Aug. 31.
“The building is 98 percent complete, but there are still a few loose ends to take care,” said Christine Kendall, the project engineer for H.E. Callahan Construction Co. of Auburn.
She said it will be ready for teachers to go in to set up their classrooms and unpack the moving cartons that have been in storage all summer on Aug. 22.
And it will be done in time for an open house for prekindergarten and kindergartners and their families tentatively set for Aug. 29.
In the past few weeks, key Mt. Blue Regional School District support staff have been trained on how the new building functions, Kendall said.
The food service workers learned how to operate the kitchen equipment. Maintenance staff got instruction on how the high-tech heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system works.
And David Leavitt, the district's director of support services, including physical plant and transportation, got a hands-on lesson on how the occupancy sensors that automatically turn lights on and off in each room work.
“Things have gone well during the project, and there has been great cooperation with everyone concerned,” he said.
The next big effort will be demolition of the 80-year-old school next door that Leavitt expects will start Monday, Aug. 8.
An excavator from E.L. Vining & Son, the Farmington company awarded the demolition contract, will take down the walls and roof in sections and the debris will be sorted and deposited in dump trucks and containers, Kendall said.
Because of the old school's proximity — only 20 feet in one area — to the new building, work has to be done with careful planning, she said.
The entire Mallett project, designed by Stephen Blatt Architects of Portland, also aims to be a “green” building and earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.
Kendall said to qualify, among many other things, 75 percent of the total weight of the products from the demolition has to be recycled.
According to the U.S. Green Building Council's website, LEED certification shows that a project's design, construction, operation and maintenance was designed and built to achieve high performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality.
