The College of the Siskiyous is moving forward with essential upgrades to McCloud Hall and the Theater Arts building, with both projects carefully designed to stay within the available budget. McCloud Hall upgrades will include updating the Ceramics Classroom and Exterior Ceramics Lab — such as equipment, HVAC, floor drains, and enclosure enhancements — as well as ADA restroom upgrades, locker improvements, and new interior and exterior paint. The Theater Arts building will be modernized, extending the building's lifespan by roughly 25 years through seismic strengthening, fire-life safety, and accessibility improvements, hazardous materials abatement, and a full roof replacement. Aside from required seismic and HVAC upgrades, the auditorium will remain unchanged to avoid triggering cost-prohibitive modifications. Together, these improvements will enhance safety, functionality, and learning environments across both facilities.
