New building for Joann Leleck Elementary at Broad Acres would become county elementary school with largest capacity

The Montgomery County Planning Board on Thursday approved Montgomery County Public Schools’ plans to replace JoAnn Leleck Elementary School at Broad Acres in Silver Spring with a new building.

Issues with overcapacity and aging infrastructure made the school a candidate for potential expansion in 2019, according to MCPS. The district later decided to build a new school that is proposed to be one to three stories tall at the same site at 710 Beacon Road.

According to planning documents, the building will have a three-story classroom wing and a single-story wing that will house learning spaces, a gymnasium, a cafeteria, a kitchen, offices, a community health clinic and other support and service spaces. In addition, plans include two internal, open-air courtyards as well as 25,000 square feet of outdoor play and learning space adjacent to the building...
