FAYETTEVILLE – Lawrence County Independent School District announced that the all-inclusive playground equipment will be arriving shortly, with anticipation of installation by early May.
Through the use of CSP funding, LCIS paid a down deposit of $87,000 to PlayPros of Kokomo, to construct an all-inclusive ADA-approved playground for all students to enjoy. The total cost of the project is estimated at approximately $300,000.
Additional items for the playground will be donated by community members, which will help alleviate some of the cost of the project.
Additional preparations for the playground have been handled by LCIS and community members which will also lower the total price.
LCIS has been going through the process of upgrading the playground equipment since June of 2021, hosting an annual Playground Palooza, and more recently a coin war to help raise additional funding for the project.
