Design
Standards
The
Facilities Department revised the process for designing new schools
and renovating existing schools in January 2002.
Traditionally, architects base school designs on a predefined set
of guidelines that set space requirements for elementary, middle,
and high schools.
With the
new design process, each school now has more flexibility in
adapting the design to fit the needs of its learning
community. The new process also emphasizes the importance of
aligning the design with the school's transformation
plan.
