	This 34,300-square foot addition doubles the existing 30,000 square foot facility. New spaces include a Gym, Media Center, Computer Lab, Classrooms, and General Office. As part of the remodeling package, the Kitchen was outfitted with new equipment, and the existing Gym/Cafeteria received a facelift for main use as a Cafeteria with incidental Multi-Purpose capacity. These addition and remodeling components are the product of a Facilities Study we completed for all 3 of the District’s buildings. The study, based on the District’s enrollment projections reviewed overall building usage to derive optimal performance throughout the next 5-8 years and into the next phase of growth. Future resulting projects include an elevator addition to the junior high school.
