On Tuesday, the NYC School Construction Authority (SCA) celebrated the opening of three newly renovated swimming pools at high schools across New York City, specifically at the James Monroe Campus in the Bronx, the Samuel J. Tilden Educational Campus in Brooklyn, and the George Washington Educational Campus in Manhattan. Nina Kubota, President and CEO of the SCA, emphasized the importance of swimming pools as vital amenities that support physical education, recreation, and water safety instruction for students. The renovation at James Monroe Campus was part of a $10.1 million project, while Tilden Educational Campus saw a $23.5 million investment for its upgraded pool facility. The George Washington Educational Campus benefited from a $21.7 million project, which included the construction of two new swimming pools and upgrades to low-voltage systems. Collectively, these projects total over $55 million aimed at enhancing aquatic facilities for students throughout the five boroughs.
