Library

Physical Education / Athletics Buildings

  • Currently held inside the assembly space and outside. Storage shed in bad shape and needs to be replaced or repaired.

Outdoor Play Equipment / Hardcourts

  • Hardcourts are in great shape. A few tripping hazards noted along the edges of the court.
  • Play structures and equipment are in decent shape but could use an update.

Specialized Elective Spaces

  • Currently no specified art room. Music has a specified room however the space does not have adequate storage for instruments. Furniture needs to be updated.

Restrooms

  • There are not enough restrooms for students and existing restrooms need to be updated. SDC classrooms need dedicated toilets.

Site

  • Lack of entrance gate is creating a lack of security on campus. Exterior lighting, security cameras and curtains in classrooms are necessary to increase safety. New exterior paint, updated landscaping and door locks are necessary.
  • Overall pavement in decent condition however there are some instances of uneven pavement. Not currently enough staff parking. Signage is needed to help direct traffic and parking lot needs to be re-striped.

Technology

  • Effort to upgrade technology is underway. Teachers are in need of voice amplification system in classrooms. School PA and bell system needs upgrade.
