I wanted to inform you of a major project that will be taking place in Fr. Kerwan Hall this summer. Beginning June 1st, licensed contractors will be removing the asbestos floor tiles from the hall. It should take approximately one month to complete, as the planned work is to be done in three stages. The first stage is to remove the tiles from the hallway by the Religious Education office and Music room (classrooms 1&2 and 3), which requires that section of the building to be closed off from use. The entrance to that section will be closed during Stage 1. Stage 2 will encompass half of Fr. Kerwan Hall, including the kitchen and classrooms 4&5. Stage 3 will be the remainder of Fr. Kerwan Hall. This plan is designed to keep some access through the hall and to the restrooms. After Stage 1 is completed, including air tests verifying that the hall is safe to be used, this section will be open for use even without the final flooring installed. There will, however, be restricted access to some of the facilities with the new flooring being installed in July. I will keep you informed of the progress of the project, as well as, any changes to the patterns of access. I ask for your cooperation and patience as this project is being undertaken to enhance Fr. Kerwan Hall for all. Thank you!
