RENEWAL 2027
DCMO BOCES Capital Building Project
DCMO BOCES recently announced a $44.4 million capital project. The plan calls for renovations of the Robert W. Harrold Campus in Sidney Center and the Alan D. Pole Campus in Norwich, and for the purchase of the former Masonville Elementary School in Masonville to house programs for students. Both the renovations and the purchase of the Masonville School are subject to voter approval, and if the referendum is successful, construction would begin in 2027.
Under the proposed plan, main entrances at both campuses will be remodeled to improve safety and security, and learning spaces will be renovated to provide modern, flexible places to learn: updating classrooms and creating spaces that can serve multiple purposes, building specialty learning hubs for specific purposes, remodeling shop spaces to allow for new and growing programs, and creating professional, large-group meeting spaces.
We’ve provided an introduction to the project here, along with information on costs and impact on taxes, a general timeline, and voting information. More detailed information can be found on the DCMO BOCES Capital Building Project pages.
