Public Forum

Reminder: Facilities Public Forum on September 8th, 2016 at 6:30pm in the Performing Arts Center at CCAHS. The meeting will begin with an overview of the process and background information for patrons. We will then break into groups to gather insight and feedback from attendees.  Attendees will be asked to complete an exit survey.  Data from the survey will be utilized by the Facilities Committee at their next meeting in formulating a recommendation to the Board of Education.

A few things you should be aware of:

  • The proposal must stay within $25 million.
  • The proposal must account for over population at North Bend and Tiffin Elementary Schools.
  • If additional pods are selected the district would need to add a 600 sq/ft addition on to each lunch room in order to maintain having 3 lunch periods in those buildings. Without the addition we would have students eating lunch very early/very late.
  • The high school will be reaching its capacity of 900 students in 2021, not having the final addition as part of this recommendation would likely leave them overcrowded for a few years.
  • The options presented are NOT meant as a pick one or the other. They are two samples that emerged through conversation with the Facilities Committee. The final recommendation could be any combination of projects.
Hopefully, we'll have a great turnout on September 8th. We believe that more input will lead to the best possible solution to the challenge of growing enrollment faced by CCA.

Sincerely,

Tim Kuehl
