Framingham Public Schools Director of Buildings and Grounds Matt Torti gave the Framingham School Committee and update on projects completed over the summer.

Torti said his department spent more than $3 million on projects including repaving sections of driveways and installing new windows and doors at Stapleton Elementary.
