Beginning this weekend, crews will start work on major renovations to the playground at Mark Twain Elementary School.

The project includes the replacement of the existing playground structure with a new main play area featuring climbing and interactive play elements for elementary students. Crews will also install a new poured-in-place rubber surface to enhance accessibility, safety and durability.

For safety reasons, the playground will be closed throughout construction and will remain inaccessible to students, families and community members until the project is complete. Work is expected to be finished shortly before the start of the 2026-27 school year.

We appreciate the community’s patience as we invest in improvements that will benefit Mark Twain students for years to come. Additional updates will be shared as the project progresses.
