I-Team Investigates

I-Team Investigates: Maine’s aging school infrastructure will air Thursday night at 6pm on CBS-13/Fox 23.

The I-Team did it’s own research over the course of 3 months to find out how old schools are and the condition that they’re in. They’ll look at the current capital improvement programs for school construction/renovation and question if they’re working.  With many schools sitting on the state priority list for replacement for years we’ll also look at what changes could be made to get more districts funding, especially since many are relying on their own tax bases to approve new schools.
