Improved classrooms on the way at Increase Miller Elementary 

Updated: Jan 13

Their shovels sent clumps of earth - and hopes for the future - flying! The June 24 groundbreaking at Increase Miller Elementary was a milestone in the Katonah-Lewisboro School District's Capitol Improvement Project.

 

Fifth grader Gavin Danelewich; his older brother Owen, an Increase Miller alum and rising freshman at John Jay High School; their dad Jim Danelewich, a member of the Board of Education’s Facilities Committee; and Increase Miller’s Head Custodian Rich Wilson, Jr.—a proud IMES grad—stood at the edge of what would be the school’s new wing and dug in.

 

The work at Increase Miller Elementary commenced on June 27. The result will give the school much needed and improved classrooms and learning spaces. 

 

Assistant Superintendent Lisa Herlihy, Director of Facilities Mike Lavoie, and KG+D President Russ Davidson and Project Manager Rich Markgraf did another round of shoveling. “This is the only groundbreaking of the District’s Capitol Improvement Project,” said Herlihy, “all other renovation is internal.”

 

The first round of shoveling was done by Increase Miller’s Assistant Principal Dr. Michael Weschler, Board member and Facilities Committee Chair Marjorie Schiff, Superintendent Andrew Selesnick, former Board member and Facilities Committee Chair Elizabeth Gereghty, Board member Lorraine Gallagher and Increase Miller Principal Kerry Ford.
