PRINCIPAL PRIORITIES

1. Additional parking spaces and signage
2. Shaded structure for dining and PE
3. Playground/play structure upgrade

SITE USE AND FUNCTIONALITY

General Education Classrooms

• Many classrooms are at-grade, permanent, modular structures. Classroom interiors have built-in teaching walls, areas of casework, and a sink. Backpack hooks are available along the classroom exterior wall.

Special Education Classrooms

• This site holds three (3) SDC classes in traditional classrooms. Toilets are desired in all three, especially the SDC class for TK/K students. It is also desired to relocate the TK/K classroom to be with their same-grade peers with direct access to the Kindergarten play yard.

Student Services / Counseling

• Counseling is located in a small office within the Library and is not sized large enough to hold a small group.
• It is also desired that the RSP room be larger as they see a high number of students. This room houses the Resource Specialist and an aid who both work with small groups.
• Intervention and RISS (Reading Intervention Specialist) typically share a space but are currently utilizing separate classrooms due to classroom availability.

Staff and Administrative Spaces

• The principal notes desire for cosmetic/modernization improvements to the Administration building.

Kitchen / Cafeteria / Food Service

• The kitchen and student serving area is separate from the MPR/cafeteria. The two functions are within the same room, separated by a pony wall. Students have clear circulation from the entry at one end of the serving line to the exit at the other end.
• This building is sited as the desired model to use as an example when considering improvements at other campuses.
• Students dine at tables outdoors. Trees and a few umbrellas provide little protection from sun and rain.

Student Assembly

• The MPR is used mainly for PE. The principal notes it is too small to comfortably accommodate the whole student body.
• The MPR has in-wall tables. Additional tables are stored at one end of the assembly space. The MPR has a stage with a wheelchair lift and contains one (1) basketball hoop and backstop. Presentation technology includes a wall-mounted projector, pull-down screen, and voice amplification/speaker system.

Library

• The Library is inviting and spacious, with varied seating types including soft seating, bean bag chairs, and bistro tables. Students have access to desktop computers within this space.

Physical Education / Athletics Buildings

• The PE equipment cart is stored in an office within the Library. PE classes utilize the MPR.
• Shade is desired at the hardcourts to accommodate PE classes during hot and rainy days.

Outdoor Play Equipment / Playfields / Hardcourts

• The principal would like the play equipment to be replaced with new, all-inclusive equipment and groundcover.
• Kids Club shares use with the Kindergarten Play Yard.
• The playfield has a highly-used cricket pitch which should remain.

Specialized Elective Spaces

• The Music room is detached from the MPR and stage but has close proximity. The Music room has the same characteristics as the typical classrooms but is furnished only with chairs that can be stacked and stored.
• The Computer Lab is no longer used for its original purpose now that each student has a device within their home classroom.
• The Exploration Lab is larger than a typical classroom and has a teaching wall, perimeter casework, and a kitchenette with oven, stove, microwave, two (2) refrigerators, and a dishwasher.
• The principal notes that additional furniture and storage is needed for the elective spaces.
• Restrooms
• Not all TK, Kindergarten, and Special Education rooms have restrooms attached.

Site / Parking / Drop-Off

• The parking lot at the front of the campus is limited for visitor and volunteers. Additional staff parking is desired in a separate location in order alleviate parking for visitors and volunteers at the front.
• The principal notes that drop-off/pick-up signage is damaged and not visible to drivers and would also like two (2) new, functional electronic marquees.
• The campus has a sensory path painted on the concrete walkways between classroom buildings.

Technology

• Classroom technology has been upgraded with a mobile LCD monitor.
