Budget

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Harford Technical High School (HTHS) has been identified as the highest priority for systemic renovation for the past three (3) years. However, due to state and local funding constraints, it has been deferred. HTHS has multiple systemic needs including mechanical (HVAC), building envelope (windows, doors, etc.), plumbing, electrical and fire safety. Additionally, HCPS instructional stakeholders have identified multiple educational program needs. The top program for update are culinary arts program space to meet state requirements, update and modernization of the cosmetology program spaces, update of the gas, electrical and ventilation for the welding and machine shop programs, providing technology upgrades for the CADD program, and modifying a space for the Academy of Health Professions (AHP) program to be used for physical therapy training. This project will address both the systemic and program needs in a multi-year phased project.
