Learning environments should spur creativity and reflect a high-quality education.
Several classrooms are being shared by two or even three teachers for small-group instruction. At times, multiple teachers with separate groups must use the same room simultaneously. Closets and storage rooms have also been converted into instructional and professional workspaces, while some teachers move from room to room each period with materials on a cart. These arrangements are not ideal and do not provide optimal teaching or learning environments.
The band and choral music programs are housed in rooms that were originally designed for other purposes and were not intended to support music instruction. These spaces are undersized and have physical limitations such as lower ceilings and constrained layouts that impact rehearsal space, instructional flexibility and acoustics.
Two teachers share this learning space - which was originally designed and used for storage. There are no windows in this classroom.
Multiple learning spaces are divided by partitions, limiting flexibility, privacy and opportunities for focused instruction.
Asbestos abatement would remove remaining asbestos-containing materials, including pipe insulation, ceiling materials and flooring throughout the building. Completing this work now would reduce ongoing inspection, reporting and related costs, while making future maintenance and capital projects easier to complete without the added constraints of managing asbestos-containing materials.
The current science room has no sinks and is not designed to match our curriculum’s collaborative, hands-on learning components.
The art room serves students across all grade levels and remained largely unchanged from its original construction. Existing millwork, countertops and sinks are not ideally sized for the full range of students who use the space, from the youngest learners to the middle school students.
Three teachers share this one classroom, creating an environment that makes it difficult to teach and learn effectively. The shared space limits opportunities for focused instruction, creates distractions and does not provide the dedicated learning environment students and teachers need.
HVAC systems are over 20 years old and are nearing the end of their useful life.
Equipment is being stored in hallway spaces – an inefficient use of areas intended for student movement and daily school operations.
The nurse’s office currently does not have an ADA-compliant restroom, limiting student use, accessibility, and functionality of the space for students and staff.
Storage containers line the school property, serving as a temporary solution. These containers aren't designed for long-term recordkeeping, leaving important documents unorganized and without temperature control.
