The project involves renovating portions of the existing 64,000-square-foot building, focusing on upgrading plumbing, HVAC, and electrical systems. Additionally, a new 45,000-square-foot addition will provide space for a new library, 4K, kindergarten, and first-grade learning areas, a modern kitchen, and a secure main entrance connected to a spacious, well-lit cafeteria.

A Student Collaboration Hub will be created within the existing structure, featuring a learning stair with tiered seating for students, various classrooms, and soft seating, facilitating group instruction and team projects.

To enhance safety and accessibility, improvements will be made to the drop-off/pick-up area. These improvements will almost double the facility's capacity, enabling it to better accommodate the growing community.
