Other Projects

Solar panels are being installed partially through the A2 bond (for American Canyon) and also other district funding sources. Not only is solar power an environmentally friendly option, it also offers our district a great financial benefit. Solar systems can be installed with no upfront capital investment, while returning annual savings from lower utility bills which can go back into our budget to benefit schools and students. NVUSD already uses solar power and is continuing that work across the district. Currently we have installed, or are actively installing solar at the following locations: Browns Valley TK-8, Canyon Oaks Elementary, Donaldson Way Elementary, McPherson Elementary, Napa Junction Elementary, Northwood Elementary, NVLA, Pueblo Vista Elementary, Shearer TK-8, Snow Elementary, Unidos MIddle School, Vichy Elementary, Willow Elementary, Memorial Stadium at Napa High and the district offices.

By providing additional EV charging infrastructure at more school, NVUSD is meeting California’s electrification goals and enabling more options for our staff and the general public. The district will also receive a rebate for all charger purchases and fees for a period up to eight years. Additional charging stations have been installed at the district office, American Canyon High School, Napa High School, Vintage High School, and New Tech High School.

Adjacent to Redwood Middle School, the grass field hosts a variety of athletic events. The parking lot is in poor condition and will receive much needed resurfacing which will take place in Summer 2025.

Plans have been approved and work is underway for track and field replacement in Summer 2025.

Resurfacing damaged pathways and surface areas are an ongoing need across the district. This type of construction is expensive, and also may requires approval from the Division of the State Architecture (DSA). The district is prioritizing this work on an ongoing basis and will provide updates as work progresses.
