As campuses close or merge, districts must determine how to manage underutilized or vacant facilities while still meeting the long-term needs of their communities. These decisions involve complex considerations around facilities planning, asset management, capital investments, and the future use of public infrastructure.In this session, Don P.

Mr. LeDuff will share insights on managing large property portfolios, aligning facilities with enrollment realities, and exploring options for repurposing or reinvesting in existing school infrastructure.FEATURED SPEAKERDon P.
