The school is expected to be ready for the start of the 2020/2021 school year and will have the capacity for more than 3,000 students. Ground was broken in September 2017 and completion is set for August 2020. The following year, the current facility will be demolished and the grounds will be completed.
Construction of the new building is taking place on the school's old athletic fields. Upon completion of the new building, the new athletic fields will be built where the current building stands today...
...The capacity of the school will increase from 1,374 students to 2,423 students with a core capacity for 2,400 students. The increased capacity to Seneca Valley High School provides the opportunity to address projected overutilization of nearby Clarksburg and Northwest high schools through student reassignments in the future...
...Onsite staging areas will be included for 30 buses, 439 parking spaces, and onsite student drop-off queuing for 30 cars...
This is what the voters want.
ReplyDeleteCore capacity is listed as 2,400, which works out to about $63,000 per seat. If you think about cost only in terms of seats added, then it's more than $140,000 per seat. These numbers are important when you think about the revenue that school impact fees are generating. The impact fees probably are too low to fund the construction needs that new residential developments have.
