1, 3 & 4 School Model Options April 9, 2013 Restructuring of Keene Elementary Schools

 Over the winter, the Board of Education decided to move toward a 4-school, wide grade span model, with Daniels housing the Preschool program  Following this, we received a Board request to provide a more detailed evaluation of several variations of 1, 3 and 4-school models  Today, we will be answering those questions 5/8/20152KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Where We Are Now

 Provide cost analysis of creating 3 EQUALLY- sized K-5 schools, including Fuller & Symonds, with long-term expandability  Provide breakout cost of Preschool in that option  Provide cost to close Daniels, Franklin, OR Wheelock in the 4-school, wide grade span model  Provide cost of building one large elementary school and closing all existing schools 5/8/20153KES restructuring – Marinace Architects School Board Questions

 Option 1A: 1-School, 1,200 student option  Options 3A & 3B: 3-School, wide grade span options  Options 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D: 4-School, wide grade span options, each with a different combination of closed and expanded schools 5/8/20154KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Scope of This Presentation

5/8/20159KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 1A – Site Plan

5/8/201510KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 1A – Summary

 Significant operating cost savings, but a large capital investment is required  New, state-of-the-art space for all students  High performance building heated from wood chip plant, with low long-term maintenance costs  Neighborhood schools replaced by one large school  Maple Street site maxed out with 2,200 students on site, creates traffic and access issues, congestion  Another site needed for possible long-term expansion 5/8/201511KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 1A – Pros & Cons

 Fuller & Symonds expanded from 3-section to 4/3-section schools. Capacity of each rises from 324 to 426 students  Daniels expanded from a 2-section to 3-section school. Capacity rises from 216 to 324 students  Preschool moves to Daniels  Franklin & Wheelock closed and sold  Total district capacity of 1,188 students K-5 5/8/201512KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 3A

5/8/201518KES Restructuring - Marinace Architects Option 3A – Summary

 Significant staff operating cost savings, but a large capital investment is required  Avoid CIP, maintenance and utility costs by closing two schools  Offers long-term expansion potential  Neighborhood school model diminished  More pressure placed on larger school cores 5/8/201519KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 3A – Pros & Cons

 Same as Option 3A except Preschool is eliminated from Daniels School  Since Preschool is not accounted for elsewhere in this option, the difference in cost between Option 3A and Option 3B can be seen as a breakout cost for the preschool program 5/8/201520KES restructuring – Marinace Architects Option 3B
