Refined Campus Development DRAFT Plans and Construction Timeline Estimates

Over the past several weeks, the development of the Northern and Central campuses has been further refined with the help from a series of meetings and planning sessions.  The updated plans were presented to the School Board on Monday March 28th.

While these layouts remain conceptual they will continue to drive the design phase of the projects through the remainder of 2016, including schematic and design development for:
  • New middle schools
  • New stadiums
  • New pool facilities
  • Site improvements





A timeline and sequence of the construction is now taking shape, based on a number inter-dependent considerations. The sequence considers a logical path to complete the master plans and other improvements, allows for the maintenance and support of daily operations, and meets the funding timeline of the bond sales. Other considerations include:
  • Safety and site accessibility 
  • Educational continuity
  • Athletics and co-curricular programming impact
  • Consideration of logical and efficient design and construction sequencing
  • Operational capabilities
    • Facility operations and logistics support
    • Shutdown and startup transition (equipment, technology, etc.)
