The district made minor adjustments to the plans, which are set to be completed by June
More than $2,000 was deducted from the cost of a project that includes several changes to the new Gettysburg Middle School.
The Gettysburg Area School District Board of Education approved one deduction of $20,422 and several small additions totaling $18,200, making for a total deduction of $2,222 from the overall cost of the project.
The $20,422 will be saved by not installing bollard lights in the new school's courtyard. The lights will not be necessary because the courtyard will receive light from 14 wall-mounted fixtures that remain in the contract, according to the meeting agenda.
The various additions to the middle school project include $6,631 for the installation of eight televisions monitors throughout the common areas of the building; $4,881 for floor-style lighting in the auditorium; $1,341 for a drywall bulkhead in one room of the building; $2,423 for bottle fillers at four water fountains throughout the building; $2,364 for bleacher curtains to prevent entry under the bleachers while they are in use; and $560 for louvers at two doors in the building.
As of September, the $36.5-million project was set to be completed by June.
In other business, the board voted to convert Feb. 17 from a staff professional development day to a student make-up day. Board president Todd Orner said the change was necessary because the district had run out of built-in snow make-up days in its calendar.

Gettysburg saves $2,000 on middle school project
Los Angeles County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas obtained a building permit Friday to renovate what appears to be an improperly converted garage at his Leimert Park home by adding a carport and removing a section of the detached building.
The request to approve the work comes after The Times reported that county-paid crews installing a security system last year replaced his garage's interior walls, installed electrical wiring and equipment, and put in appliances without city permits.
The newspaper reported that the detached garage had been converted into an office with a restroom before the work was done, apparently without permits.
Online records show that city building officials issued a permit Friday to add a two-vehicle carport and convert the garage into a recreation room with a half-bathroom. In addition, the permit calls for the removal of a five-by-19-foot section of the building.
Bob Steinbach, a spokesman for the city's Department of Building and Safety, said inspectors have visited the home as part of an investigation into whether Ridley-Thomas' garage had been converted without permits. The probe was launched in response to a complaint after the Times report about the county work performed at the supervisor's home.
Steinbach said city officials still have to perform further inspections of the garage. As part of the permit sought Friday, he said, inspectors would conduct a thorough review of any work previously done without approval. He said inspectors, for example, usually punch holes in drywall to examine unpermitted electrical and plumbing work.
"That will all be part of the permit," he said. "There are a lot of inspections that have to happen."
Lisa Richardson, a spokeswoman for Ridley-Thomas, said the work proposed under Friday's permit "is a private matter and no public employees are involved." The permit lists the contractor as Yor Construction and Investments Inc., a Valley Village-based firm.
Ridley-Thomas has declined repeated requests from The Times to answer questions about last year's work by county-paid crews on his garage.
In an interview last week with radio station KCRW-FM (89.9), he said the garage had been converted before he bought the home more than 20 years ago. A Times check of city building records turned up no permits for the conversion or for last year's work by the county.

Wallpaper is Back in Style
After fading from popularity decades ago, wallpaper is making a comeback. But it's nothing like what you remember seeing in your grandma's kitchen. In this week's Angie's List report, Nancy Naeveshows how wallpaper can change the look and feel of a room.
It can be a nightmare to remove and even more difficult to apply. That's why many homeowners turn to an expert when dealing with wallpaper. Contractor Jim Stevens is hanging new wallpaper in a client's home he had to remove the old paper and prep the walls.
"Well she stripped some of the outer coating on the bare drywall which is a problem. The wallpaper was hung over a bare drywall and that's something you never want to do. Even sizing won't keep that wallpaper from tearing that paper off the drywall when you go to strip it," Wallpaper Contractor Jim Stevens said.
Susan Colvin, an interior designer, says if you are looking for an alternative to paint, wallpaper can bring color and texture to any room. And some of today's wallpaper is also easier to remove.
"You can get pattern, multiple colors, and so there's a lot of style in wallpaper and you can express some individuality that you're not necessarily doing just with paint," Interior Designer Susan Colvin said.
"Wallpaper is making a comeback, but it's not the same wallpaper we have thought of over the years. There is some really neat trends, but one thing hasn't changed and that's wallpaper is a commitment. Putting it up and taking it down can be tricky," Angie's List Angie Hicks said.
"If you don't like tedious stuff, you want to stay out of the stripping business. Hanging wallpaper is a tedious process too. A lot of times you get what you pay for. A professional will put it up right and take it off right too," Stevens said.
The most common wallpaper types are vinyl and fabric.
"A lot of wallpaper is made with vinyl coatings, to make it easier to clean. Not all wallpapers are that way, but a lot of wallpaper you can actually wash down fairly well. So there are a little easier to maintain than perhaps some paint," Colvin said.
