How big is this project?

The new addition will be 61,000 square feet, with 30,000 square feet of renovations to the existing facilities.

Will there be more parking?

Yes. The project includes plans for additional parking. 

Will the lunchroom spaces be able to accommodate more students? 

Yes. Dining space will be increased by 4,925 square feet, and the kitchen will be increased by 440 square feet.

Additional tables will be provided so we can serve more students at one time.

Will elementary students still have separate dining space from the middle/high school students?

Yes. Elementary students and Middle/High School students will still eat in areas separate from each other. 

The new kitchen space will include two separate serving lines on opposite sides of the kitchen, one for Elementary students and one for Middle/High School students. 

Will the new gym be bigger?

Yes. The current gym holds 1,100 spectators, and the new gym will hold approximately 1,350.  

The floor space is also increased. With longer side courts and the ability to lay three wrestling mats down going the length of the floor, the new gym will be large enough to host district wrestling competitions. 

What will happen to the existing gym?

Our current gym will be transformed into a multipurpose space, serving as a Fine Arts venue for one-acts, K-12 music concerts, and an auxiliary gym. Right now, we often need to run two PE classes simultaneously in the same space—this addition will eliminate that challenge, providing more flexibility for students and staff. Beyond improving daily operations, this space will also allow us to expand programming opportunities while ensuring students can get home earlier, ultimately supporting their academic success. 

Is there a safety concern with the overhead doors in the new CTE space?

No. The overhead doors will only be opened to bring in vehicles and large projects. They will be immediately closed after, keeping the facility as secure as the rest of the building. 

What is the project budget and tax impact?

The Louisville school board and superintendent have been talking with fiscal agents about options for financing the project. If the school board votes to move forward with a bond initiative, information will be published on the budget and how to calculate your personal tax impact.

The project budget is $37,495,000. To determine how this would affect your property tax amount, visit this link and see your taxable valuation.

If the bond doesn't pass, what happens next?

Without additional space, expanding programs would become increasingly difficult. 

The next step to accommodate students would be adding portables behind the school.
