The scope of work included the addition of eight primary, one kindergarten, one art, and one music classroom, and a physical education office, each with associated support spaces. It also included an exterior canopy connecting the addition to adjacent buildings, enclosure of the dumpster, signage, a storm water management system, landscape and irrigation of the area between Building 1 and the addition, and a new playcourt, bus drop-off/pick-up area, and staff parking lot. First floor restrooms were remodeled and classroom restrooms were renovated. Interior walls and ceilings affected by selective demolition were painted.
