What’s in the Plan?

Enhancing Learning for All Students

The proposal reflects a commitment to fostering an environment that enhances learning for all students, aligning with the district's phased long-term plan spanning over a decade.

These upgrades and improvements include:

New Elementary School: Silver City and Noble Prentis Combined

COST: $35,000,000

  • New Build on Noble Prentis Site

  • Approximately 72,000 square footage

  • 500-550 Student Capacity

  • Option for constructing new building while existing building is occupied; existing building to be demolished after new school is built

  • Silver City site is to be repurposed for new Argentine Middle School after students move into new combined site.

New Middle Schools: Central and Argentine Middle Schools

  • COST: $66,368,900

    • New Build (Site TBD)

    • Approximately 125,000 square footage

    • 900-950 Student Capacity

    • Site Option 1 = New Building on Current Site

      • Existing site / acreage is not ideal for a new built on-site

      • Would require full demo of existing building prior to re-build and temporary relocation of students during construction.

    • Site Option 2 = New Building on New Site (TBD)

      • Ideal for additional educational and athletic opportunities on-site

      • Students could remain in current building until new facility is built

    • New Build on Silver City site

    • Approximately 125,000 square footage

    • 900-950 Student Capacity

    • Existing building to be demolished prior to re-build.  Must wait till completion of new combined ES at Noble Prentis site to move students to begin construction, or Silver City students will need to be temporarily relocated to another site to allow for construction to start sooner (TA Edison could be an option).

    • Existing Argentine MS site can be used for Swing Site, re-purposed or demolished at a later date.

Building Addition: Sumner Academy Classrooms

COST: $7,000,000

The Sumner addition will consist of eight classrooms and restroom facilities and additional support space  will connect to the main building creating a better learning environment and safer environment for students and staff.  This will allow the district to remove mobile classrooms from the campus.
