During the Board Meeting on Thursday, September 19, 2019, the Feasibility Committee, in conjunction with RLPS Architects, presented an update on the Feasibility Study. We are very pleased to share these updates and hope that you can feel the excitement is building. 

Site Plans, Floor Plans, and Exterior Concepts – The District is making progress on the designs for our new Intermediate Schools. These buildings will serve students in fifth and sixth grades. A site concept was developed showing the new building on the Fairview Elementary site.  A concept was also developed showing an Intermediate School on the newly acquired District property at the intersections of Valley & Beinhower Roads in Fairview Township. The District is working through land development plans on both sites and building designs will be finalized in preparation for bidding and construction.

 

Renovations and Additions - The first concepts for renovations and additions to Allen Middle School were also shared with the board. The construction at Allen Middle School will be the final project for phases 1 & 2 and will allow the District to fully implement the feeder school concept adopted in the spring of 2017.

 

Cost Estimates - Updated estimates for construction costs were shared and contrasted with the original cost estimates from the Feasibility Study.
