PLEASE NOTE THESE FACTORS REGARDING ALL OPTIONS: Proposed Capacity of New Construction 2018-19 Combined Projected Enrollment for Taylor MS & Warrenton MS Best Case Project Completion Estimated Cost in 2016 Dollars Option 1: Build new schools for both Taylor MS & Warrenton MS. Build the new Taylor MS first. 1,300 889 January 2024 $98,194,263 Option 2A: Consolidate Taylor MS & Warrenton MS into New MS at Taylor Site at 1,000 student capacity 1,000 889 January 2021 $55,300,036 Option 2B: Consolidate Taylor MS & Warrenton MS into New MS at Taylor Site at 900 student capacity plus an addition at Auburn MS 1,200 889 January 2021 $61,421,442 Current Combined Program Capacity of Taylor MS & Warrenton MS is 1,092 Proposed Capacity, Projected Enrollment & Utilization
include cost of repurposing these spaces.

What is the total project cost?
(includes escalation over time)
How long will it take to complete? 7.25 years $98 million
Current capacity between the two schools is 1,092
Replace both schools at 650 capacity each
After the new Taylor is built, move Warrenton students into current Taylor MS during construction
students would have to be housed in portables (a significant disruption and cost)
Rebuild Taylor MS first
There would likely be some Middle School boundary changes to best utilize both schools
Consider boundary adjustments
6
How long will it take to complete? 4 years
$55-61 million Taylor site is larger & 7.5 acres of the Warrenton site is currently occupied by the
facilities until construction is complete.
Build on the Taylor site
The new school on the Taylor site would include historical references to honor Mr. Taylor and Taylor MS. The original Warrenton MS building would be retained and repurposed.
Honor history
There would likely be some middle school boundary changes with adjacent schools
Consider boundary adjustments
2A – Build at 1,000 capacity ($55 million) 2B—Build at 900 capacity plus 300 addition at Auburn MS ($61 million)

The Options Committee (School Division leadership, board representatives, and citizen Advisory Committee representatives) selected the current Taylor Middle School site for the consolidated school option. The Options Committee made this decision for the following reasons: 1. The School Division owns more land that can be developed at the Taylor MS site than can be developed at the Warrenton MS site (Taylor 25 acres vs. Warrenton 22 acres). 2. Of the 22 total acres on the Warrenton site, only 14.5 acres are currently available as the county administrative annex occupies part of the Warrenton MS site. 3. Current plans for the County to move the annex are not time-specific. The School Division would need to wait for the annex to move before considering the Warrenton MS site for a consolidated school, and every year the Division has to wait, construction costs escalate. Given the above factors, rate your support for considering the Taylor Middle School site OR the Warrenton Middle School site for a consolidated middle school. Strong Support Support Little Support No Support No Opinion Taylor MS Site Warrenton MS Site
Q#3 Rate your level of support for each option listed. Strong Support Support Little Support No Support No Opinion Option 1 Option 2A Option 2B Q#4 Rank the options in order of preference. You must select only one 1st choice, one 2nd choice, and one 3rd choice. 1st Choice 2nd Choice 3rd Choice Option 1 Option 2A Option 2B
Q#5 Are there any changes you would make to your preferred option? Q#6 If one of the consolidated school options is selected, what are some potential reuses of the original Warrenton building that you would like the School Division to consider? (Some ideas that have been suggested include, but are not limited to: Relocation of the Community Center, Relocation of the Alternative High School, School Division Administration building)
