INTRODUCTION
School districts across the country are facing outstanding circumstances that restrict access to funding and put valuable projects on hold. Whatever factors are limiting your school district's operations, easy access to financial resources is a necessity to improve infrastructure and build towards a brighter future for your students' education and well-being.
Turning to a facility services partner can help - just ask these decision makers, who tell us in their own words how ABM's funding options and energy-efficient services offer access to previously unrealized savings.
It would not have been possible for our county to afford the infrastructure improvements our schools desperately needed without the financial structure of ABM's program.
Dr. John Barge, Superintendent
McIntosh County Schools
At the Burbank Unified School District, we were able to utilize ABM to replace lighting at 14 schools and offices with modern LED lighting that everyone enjoys. [ABM] staff is professional and easy to work with. And the best part, no change orders and minimal disruptions! I would not hesitate to hire them again.
David Jaynes,
Assistant Superintendent of Administrative Services Burbank Unified School District
…the ABM team further investigated our facilities and determined that in addition to replacing lighting, we could replace a significant number of air conditioning units at both Claremont High School and El Roble Intermediate School. ABM handled all of the Prop 39 grant application process on our behalf, and applied for the Southern California Edison rebates as well, significantly reducing the administrative burden which so often accompanies these types of projects.
Lisa Shoemaker, Assistant Superintendent,
Business Services, Claremont Unified School District
Through our ongoing relationship with ABM, we have been able to provide our students and staff with a cleaner and healthier learning environment, upgrade infrastructure, and generate positive cash flow during a very difficult time. ABM has been a partner that we consider to be a trusted advisor for our school system.
Michael H. Williams, Superintendent
Madison County Schools
With ABM’s solution, we don’t have to select between student-focused initiatives and improving our infrastructure.
Dr. Mason Gary, Superintendent,
Anderson School District 3, South Carolina
They made me look like a genius.
Michael Ward, Former Assistant Superintendent,
Harris County School District Superintendent Dodge County Schools
This partnership allows us to not only upgrade the facilities and security in our building, but we’re also able to upgrade the technology-based educational programming for our students. The project gives us the stability to move ahead with an educational component that a lot of public education institutions cannot due to funding cuts.
Philip Martell,
Superintendent of Connellsville Area School District
