A staffer at the high school next to where FC Cincinnati is building its new stadium says construction is shaking the school, undermining efforts to teach.

"I’m about to go on my “I teach at Taft and this is so messed up” rant," Rachelle Caplan, a Taft Information High School intervention specialist, said in a Facebook post later shared in the Greater Cincinnati Politics Facebook group.

"1. Students are being continually given the message that they don’t matter because of this stadium. 2. It was said that in no way would this construction 'affect the learning environment'. 3. The floors, desks, projectors, and everything else shake/rattle/sound and feel like the building is falling down everyday ."

She went on to say she has trouble getting to work because of road closures, that buses can’t get to the school and children have to be dropped off blocks away and walk through a construction zone.

"This would never happen at other schools," she added. "Taft has 98% (Persons of color) students and 100% free lunch. You do the math on that." Caplan told The Enquirer during this spring break she's taken the time to think about how disruptive the construction has been, which prompted the post.

FC Cincinnati and Turner Construction, the company building the FC Cincinnati stadium, vowed to maintain communication with school officials and to "ensure minimal disruption to students and staff," Anne Sesler, a spokesperson for FC Cincinnati stadium construction, told The Enquirer.

Sesler said the construction company is implementing several policies and procedures toward that goal, including:

Identifying and paying for parking for teachers who are unable to park in the school lot.

Changing the construction schedule when asked by Taft High to accommodate testing periods and to conduct louder work during spring break.

Creation of an email for construction questions and concerns: fccincinnati@turner.com.

Locating the construction office trailer within feet of the school. The trailer is open to the public.

Turner construction staff help direct traffic during student arrival and dismissal.

On Friday, Turner officials offered to meet with Taft High faculty and staff next week, Sesler added, to share details about the construction plan and timeline.

Cincinnati Public Schools Superintendent Laura Mitchell and School Board member Ryan Messer toured the school Friday afternoon to see any impact.

"We learned that they have been meeting weekly with the principal but thought it might be helpful to open that up to staff going forward so that there can be open lines of communication between our staff and the construction managers to ensure we mitigate any issues that would affect or impact our students," Messer said after the visit. "I left a meeting believing that the Turner construction team was fully committed to working in every way they can to minimize any impact to students, testing, etc. in the weeks ahead. In fact, a few of the Turner were alumni, parents or relatives of Taft students."

FC Cincinnati officials said they are looking into the matter.

When the stadium was approved for the West End, the team pledged as little impact as possible on the surrounding area.

It's still a construction zone. And the MLS stadium isn't the only construction project. To make way for the stadium the district itself, with $10 million from FC Cincinnati, is building a new high school stadium. And there is a sewer district project on Ezzard Charles requiring parts of the street to be closed.

Turner Construction officials told the school officials they would help to coordinate the projects.

Stadium construction is expected to last until 2021, when the stadium is slated to open.
