In a statement issued to the school community, Blach Construction says it is doing its best to accomplish the work during the before September 3. 

“We will be performing a significant amount of work in a very short time frame.  We will do our best to perform all work between the hours of 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM.  On occasion, potential unforeseen conditions (such as weather) may require us to work extended hours or on weekends to ensure all construction activity is completed this year (thereby avoiding an additional phase next summer). Your patience regarding working hours and construction activity will be instrumental in the success of the project and is greatly appreciated.”
