Educational Specifications
Districtwide Educational Specification documents are used to describe design requirements for future K-12 school planning in the district and apply to both new schools and renewal projects. They flexibly adjust to individual school and community needs; promote consistency throughout the district; and simplify subsequent site-specific design projects. The School Board approved districtwide educational specifications each for high, middle and elementary school levels as recommended by the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee on Sept. 6, 2012. The final documents are available in PDF format below:   Elementary specifications (PDF)   Middle school specifications (PDF)   High school specifications (PDF)
