Welcome to Capital Project Updates
In October 2022, the KLSD community voted to allow the Katonah-Lewisboro District to bond for up to $49.5 M for capital projects at all five schools: Increase Miller Elementary School, Katonah Elementary School, Meadow Pond Elementary School, John Jay Middle School, and John Jay High School.
This project represents the Katonah-Lewisboro community’s decision to fund a major investment in our school district's infrastructure and facilities. It's a testament to our commitment to providing a safe, modern and enriching learning environment for our students.
This section of the District’s website is devoted to keeping the KLSD community updated on the status of the work associated with the capital project. The District will update the site with photos, videos, and status updates as it goes through the project process. Please check back for updates and new information.
