Facilities issues arise at all educational levels, from prekindergarten through high school, and at all sites, from classrooms to administrative offices. Challenges arise in new and old facilities alike, although the types of concerns may differ. Because routine and unexpected maintenance demands are bound to arise, Charles County Public Schools must proactively develop and implement a plan for dealing with these inevitabilities. A sound Comprehensive Maintenance Plan (CMP) helps to ensure that our school facilities are, and will be, cared for appropriately. Negligent facilities maintenance planning can result in real problems. Large capital investments can be squandered when buildings and equipment deteriorate or warranties are invalidated. In addition, failure to maintain school facilities adequately also discourages future investment in our public education system. However, school facilities maintenance is concerned about more than just resource management. It is about providing clean and safe environments for children. It is also about creating a physical setting that is appropriate and adequate for learning. A classroom with broken windows and cold drafts does not foster effective learning. But neither does an apparently state-of-the-art school that is plagued with uncontrollable swings in indoor temperature. Experience suggests that an effective CMP can: contribute to our school system’s instructional effectiveness,
