This site is programmed for both an Elementary and a Middle School. The Elementary School is within the Phase I work and is scheduled to open for the 2022 - 2023 school year. At this time, the middle school is not in the 7 year building forecast.

The design team worked closely with WCPSS planning and design. During this process, several priorities were identified as important to the project:

• Create the opportunity for a campus identity where the two schools can relate to one another.

• Provide shared open space between the Elementary School and the future Middle School

• Maintain an entrance for service vehicles to the site which doesn’t require navigation of the entire site

• Separate drop-off points for carpool and buses

• Create a visible and identifiable presence and entry at the road

• Provide the opportunity to have as many classrooms as possible at the level of finished grade
