BSD Construction Projects News and Information

  • The Brandywine School District's buildings and facilities are considered to be among the best maintained and most attractive in the state, and for good reason.  On any given day, improvement projects both large and small are happening - landscaping and mowing, floor polishing, HVAC repairs, rewiring, electrical work, window replacement, and more.  When more significant capital improvements are necessary, BSD requests the support of the community through a capital referendum.  The last such referendum was held in 2016 and included the following projects:
