About the Project
The district will build a new 3-story replacement school building for Kimball Elementary. The approximately 95,000 square foot school will meet the district's elementary educational specifications and provide space for up to 650 students.
The proposed design is organized into learning clusters with classrooms surrounding learning commons. It will have secure points of entry with visitor access controlled by the administration office. The school is designed to be contextually appropriate and respectful of the surrounding single-family home neighborhood while preserving open space for outdoor learning, play, and recreation.
During construction, Kimball Elementary will move to the Van Asselt School interim site at 7201 Beacon Ave. S.
