What is the project timeline?

The current schedule for the project is:

• Completion of Feasibility Study - Spring 2018
• Completion of Preferred Schematic Design - Summer 2018
• Secure Project Funding - November 2018 or April 2019
• Completion of Building Design - TBD (approximately 12-15 months)
• Completion of Building Construction - TBD (approximately 24-36 months)

When will the new high school open?

The schedule for the start of construction will be determined by the Feasibility Study and Preferred Schematic Design. The construction schedule will also be determined by the size of the project and whether it is a renovation/addition (phased/occupied schedule to allow for school operations during construction) or new construction. It is anticipated that the construction will take two to three years.

What happens to the high school students while the new school is being built?

The project team will develop a strategy including a phasing schedule and possible modular classrooms to minimize disruption to school operations and to maintain safety and security for students, faculty, and staff. Modular classrooms are typically constructed on-site to supplement educational spaces that are under construction. These temporary facilities, equipped with normal heating, cooling, and plumbing functions, serve as transition spaces for students while portions of the building are under construction.
