Turf at both the baseball and softball fields will offer a smart, long-term solution for modern athletic programs. By providing a consistent, durable surface that will withstand heavy use and challenging weather, turf will significantly increase field availability throughout the year. It will reduce the need for ongoing maintenance such as mowing, seeding, and irrigation, allowing resources to be redirected elsewhere. While the initial investment will be higher than natural grass, the long-term savings and expanded usability will make turf a practical and popular choice—one that will align with trends already embraced by many high schools across the region.

Strafford’s centrally located auditorium will continue to be a point of pride—hosting first-class musical and theatrical performances that showcase the incredible talent of our students. But while the performances will shine, the audience experience has often fallen short. Patrons have been left waiting in the rain, and the current ticketing and entry setup does not reflect the excellence happening on stage. This project will change that. By improving the entrance, adding a dedicated ticketing area, and enhancing accessibility, we will give audiences the welcoming, weather-protected experience they deserve—from the moment they arrive to the final curtain call. It will be time to bring the “front of house” up to the same high standard as what happens inside. Agriculture has long been a cornerstone of the Strafford community— and the district’s agricultural education program will continue to reflect that deep-rooted legacy. This project will transform the current ag building into a modern, purpose-driven learning environment that will meet the evolving needs of tomorrow’s students and the future of the industry. Planned improvements will include updated lab spaces, increased natural light, essential roof repairs, and a full rebranding of the facility—from a shared maintenance space to a dedicated agricultural education center. As the world of agriculture becomes more complex and technology-driven, so too must the spaces where students learn. This investment will ensure that Strafford’s students are equipped with the skills, tools, and environment they need to lead in the future ag economy
