Christensen Middle School is one of three middle schools in the District. The current enrollment is 680 students, but the campus has the capacity to house somewhere between 850 and 900 students. Recently, Christensen received about 100 students from the closure of the nearby charter school. There are ten buildings on the 11.69 acre site, with one of those being a portable daycare building that is currently not in the scope of this bond implementa!on plan. The majority of the buildings on campus were built in 1992, including the two modular "pods", each with six classrooms. The mul!-purpose space, Building J was built in 1976, and has been renovated twice, in 1992 and again in 2000.

The campus is bordered by Haggin Oaks Avenue to the north, residen!al areas to the east and west, and a park to the south.

The parking lot and student drop off are located off of Haggin Oaks Avenue. The aesthe!cs of the school, including materials, trees, fencing, and paint colors work well in the exis!ng neighborhood and the front entry has good "curb appeal". All of the exis!ng buildings on campus are connected via a covered walkway, and there is a large quad area with a small covered ea!ng area.

While the majority of the classroom buildings and the mul!purpose space are in good shape, some of the buildings on campus need varying degrees of renova!on. The two modular buildings, E and F for example, are aging and in need of significant repair or replacement. The gym needs air condi!oning and larger locker rooms. Building J was the original administra!on building, yet it has now been converted to music and choir spaces. The music program, with approximately 60 students, is now using rooms with poor acous!cs and low ceilings, without enough prac!ce or storage space.

The Bond Implementa!on Plan recommends: • Removal of one modular building (E), renova!on of the other (F) • A new music and maker space building • Renova!on of the gymnasium • Development of a special educa!on complex 55

1 EXISTING The following represents one scenario for phasing and implementa!on of the improvements an!cipated at Christensen Middle School. It is expected that a par!cipatory design process may yield a revised approach within the parameters established here. In addi!on to the projects shown here, the following basic infrastructure needs must be met:

2 RENOVATE BUILDING C (GYM) AND BUILDING F The renova!on of the gym is necessary due to the lack of HVAC systems and significantly undersized locker rooms. The locker room is unable to support the current number of students and coaching staff at Christensen. This phase also includes the renova!on of Building F, a modular classroom building.

3 REMOVE BUILDING E In this phase modular Building E is removed.

4 NEW MAKER LAB AND MUSIC A new building will now be in the old loca!on of Building E. This building will include a Maker Space and a new area for the music department. The current music program is housed in Building J, which was originally intended to house administra!on uses.

5 RENOVATE BUILDING J Since the music and choir department will be relocated, Building J will be renovated for the moderate to severe special educa!on program and life skills training.

S"##$%& This page summarizes the implementa!on plan, highligh!ng new construc!on, renova!on as well as site and infrastructure projects. As previously established, 33 loaded and non loaded classroom/lab spaces are required to meet the desired long term capacity of 765 students. The assumed classroom count, per building, is shown on the diagram adjacent to each building.

These numbers should guide the future development and/or renova!on of campus buildings throughout the implementa!on phase.
