Why Middle Schools?
WHY MIDDLE SCHOOLS?
» This is the first step in a long range plan for district-wide facility improvements » First phase investment in the middle schools will affect all future middle school age learners vs. an investment in an elementary or high school focused first phase would only affect the students attending the specific schools improved » Allows two schools (Randall and Saratoga) to be closed/repurposed » Current middle schools are most in need of improvement/investment » Allows Americans with Disabilities Act needs at middle schools to be addressed
» Educational environments at the upgraded middle schools will better support personalized learning which has been a focus at the 6th-8th grade level » Locations of the current middle schools are less than ideal with growth on west side of district » Provides one STEM campus vs. two » Investment in an upgraded STEM learning environment helps develop our students in areas that are most sought after by our private sector employers » Randall and Saratoga STEM Schools have negative traffic impact on their neighborhoods
WHY MIDDLE SCHOOLS?
Review Conceptual Plans for Potential Solution
» HVAC equipment and control upgrades » Cleaning of existing HVAC equipment and ductwork » Electrical panels replaced » Water softener replaced » Finish upgrades – carpet, paint, ceiling tile, and cabinets » Door hardware – replace to be ADA compliant » Toilet rooms – renovate to be ADA compliant » Handrails at stairs – replace to be ADA compliant » Exterior concrete repair – trip hazards at sidewalks, etc.
