Augusta, Kansas: a school kitchen renovation inside the 2025 bond work
Augusta High School's share of the USD 402 2025 bond includes a kitchen renovation, tucked in with a career and technical expansion, an auditorium and a wrestling room. The district's October 2026 update put the high school at 17.5 percent complete, so cafeteria planning is still ahead.
Delivery to Augusta starts at the Topeka warehouse, about 145 miles out. Route and timing are confirmed by the rental team.
Questions a school planner would ask first
- Does the kitchen work close the serving line?
- The district page lists the kitchen renovation among the high school scope but gives no dates for it. Ask the contractor and the district's food service lead when the line goes dark, then work backward to a delivery date.
- Who permits a temporary kitchen on school grounds?
- Butler County's health page lists services such as immunizations and child care licensing but not food permits, so ask the county health department which office issues temporary food permits. Then confirm with the district and with Augusta public safety, which the city's online code names as the fire code enforcer.
A sample plan: a ten-day cafeteria gap
If the high school kitchen equipment is pulled out and replaced in one stretch, the cafeteria could lose its line for about ten days. A temporary kitchen on the school lot, with a prep unit beside it, would cover lunch for students while the district keeps its serving schedule.
Rental schedule: 8 to 14 days
- 28 ft mobile kitchen: $4,995 to $7,995 per month
- 22 to 26 ft low temperature dishwashing trailer: starting at $4,995 per month

What the district's bond page shows
Bond: 2025 project updates ↗
Augusta USD 402
The district's bond page tracks two phases. Augusta High School's scope includes a kitchen renovation, a career and technical expansion, fine arts work and an auditorium renovation, and its October 2026 update reports 17.5 percent complete. Ewalt Elementary is reported at 24 percent.
For a kitchen rental: If the kitchen renovation takes the serving line offline, ask early whether a temporary kitchen could cover lunches.
Phase 1 at the middle school and the Garfield and Lincoln elementaries was substantially complete by August 2026. Phase 2 is where the cafeteria question lives: Augusta High School and Ewalt Elementary, with the high school reporting concrete at the wrestling addition and steel going up on the north and south additions.
The page also notes six days lost to weather at the high school. Long school jobs slip, and a kitchen date that moves by a week is easier to absorb when a backup plan already exists.
Weather and fire questions for the lot
- What storm risk does the county point to?
- Butler County Emergency Management, based at 2100 N. Ohio St in Augusta, cites the April 1991 F5 tornado in its history and runs severe weather awareness programs. Ask the office what a school lot should do when warnings sound.
- Can cooking happen outdoors on the lot?
- The city's code says open pit fires are prohibited unless the director of public safety authorizes them. A trailer is a different setup, so ask that office to review it before delivery.
