Infrastructure Minutes

May 20, 1998

The group met and responded to the following questions: Why would we choose to build at this site (Wilson School); Should we add on to a K-3 structure to house Pre-K?

 

The possibilities being investigated were as follows.

  • (1)New building at Wilson to support grades 4-6 and move all pre-school to a remodeled Wilson
  • (2)Remodel Wilson as a 4-6 building and add on to all or some of the K-3 buildings
  • (3)Eliminate Dirksen and redraw boundaries and do either of the above options (1 or 2)
  • (4)Build a new building at an existing campus (+ indicates available space, - indicates lack of available space): BJHS (+), Edison (-), Sunset (+), Willow (-), Starke (-), Wilson (+), Jefferson (-)
  • (5)Build at a new location, i.e. Park District, City land, High School land (buy or trade land)
  • (6)West Campus
  • (7)Build a new Broadmoor Junior High School at Wilson facility and move the intermediate school to BJHS
  • (8)Build a new pre-K structure and remodel Wilson for 4-6

 

The following could be used to evaluate each of the proposals. A + and – could be used to determine appropriateness. A + if the factor is favorable and a – if it is not favorable.
