The 1970’s original open concept ‘pods’ will be reconfigured into standard classrooms along with a new expanded library. Four new additions will add a new central office, 12 new classrooms with individual toilets, a new cafeteria & kitchen. Upon its completion the school will support up to 1,000 students. Although not officially a LEED Certified building, the building will be provided air-conditioning and other “green’ Building features that will lower operating costs and follow the same guidelines. The District elected to follow the recommendations of the Design Team and implement a Construction Waste management Plan. Therefore, all construction debris and waste will be separated and collected by a LEED certified waste contractor. |
