Administration 

• Administration is positioned at the front of the campus to serve as the primary point of contact and control point for access to the rest of the school

• Administration has an easily identifiable front entrance and views of visitor parking and front entry

• It should also have visible connection to the interior campus and quick access.

Student Support Services

• While Student Support Services has some operational connections to Administration, it should be located closer to main student pathways and could even be attached to the Cafetorium to create more of a Student Hub 

• It should be oriented toward the Learning Communities to focus on student wellness.

Special Education

• Classrooms are integrated within the Learning Communities and positioned with classroom building to minimize travel distances

Learning Communities

• Academy or pathway clusters of classrooms are stacked for efficiency of space and are in close proximity to one another to share resources and specialized learning spaces.

• This also frames outdoor spaces in between to encourage incorporating into the curriculum and academy.

Career and Technical Education

• Embed with Learning Communities or in proximity

• In proximity to Cafetorium and/or Outdoor Program Spaces when appropriate to curriculum

• High Intensity or Specialized CTE spaces may need double height, making it difficult to stack,

Library Multipurpose Learning Center

• Library Multipurpose Learning Center is centrally located for convenient access.

• Opportunity to connect to Cafetorium and Student Support Services strengthens the concept of a Student Hub by bringing together primary student gathering spaces and encourage easy movement between the three.

• 
  

Cafetorium

• Large assembly area building with access to campus buildings as well as exterior service access

• Convenient to parking for events and when used as a shelter

• Outdoor dining area(s) adjacent to the cafetorium

• Site depending, could be located by Gym to augment outdoor student gathering spaces

Piko

• Main outdoor gathering area and symbolic center of the campus

• Strong connection to primary student social gathering spaces

• The Piko can also serve as a large school space for student gathering (pep rallies, music, carnivals, etc.), if site permits. 

Parking

• Quantity to cover all staff and minimum of 25 visitor stalls

• Include parking area near service unloading zone for kitchen staff and custodians

• Visitor stalls located near Administration

• Student parking shall be designed and located to be securable and separate from staff and visitor parking. Quantity to be determined based on community needs, bus routes, etc

• ADA stalls and EV charging stalls quantities and locations as required by code

• Parking lots require lighting for safety, night events.

Bus Queuing

• Shade and weather protection for students at bus waiting, or locate near Cafetorium or Gymnasium

• Design bus circulation to exclude the necessity for backing up any buses 

• Consider separating bus entry/exit drive from parent drop off / pick up traffic and student parking; okay for buses to share driveway with cafeteria delivery vehicles

• Bus drop-off area can be less convenient than parent drop off / pick up (bus traffic is controlled by contract); parent drop off / pick up needs to be simpler and more convenient

• Consider traffic flow and volume of student parking entries and exits to avoid buses and parent pick up zones

• Provide for curb-to-curb bus transportation located near Specialized Support Classrooms

Parent Drop Off / Pick Up

• Provide ample on-site queuing for drop off /pick up lane

• Locate near Administration or Cafetorium and configure so that logical drop off point for students is at the end of the lane

• Students shall not cross traffic when entering or leaving vehicles.  Students unload from right hand side of car

• Avoid double and triple stacking car lanes

Vehicle Circulation 

• Good internal circulation is important. Prefer not to have to send vehicles off site

• Traffic controls are to be used such as: stop signs, yield signs, speed bumps, raised pedestrian crossing tables, stop wording and stop bars on the ground, yellow zone curbs (for loading and unloading) and red zone curbs (no stopping), etc

• When site configuration allows, entrance and exit driveways should be right turns only (left turns tend to be slow and traffic backs up) 

• Design should support safety of pedestrians and easy visual supervision

Pedestrian Circulation

• Provide walkway connections to all adjacent public walkways in street rights-of-way

• Maintain and identify fire lanes and emergency access to school facility entries as required by code

Universal Design

• Accessibility throughout the entire campus for all students to travel throughout all spaces

• Ramps and elevators - consider connectivity between buildings to promote redundancy of elevator access

• Yellow curbing strips for low visibility students/staff

Service / Unloading Area

• Delivery truck routes do not cross student paths to fields or other main site amenities

• Flat delivery area (no loading dock, but delineate area with striping)

• Smooth surface with curb cuts as required, for carts, dollies or pallets to wheel materials into Kitchen or Custodial Center

• Nearby area for golf cart charging and secure storage (confirm number of carts during design)

• Consider access and functionality when locating grease trap outside of cafeteria

Garbage Collection

• Secure enclosure for 3-4 large trash bins with easy access on one long side

• Verify size of trash bins with Facilities Maintenance Branch during design

• Locate a minimum 50 ft. from kitchen door and other occupied areas to reduce impact of odors on nearby activities

• Consider prevailing winds when locating

Can Wash

• Hose bib with sanitizing spray system

• Proximity to kitchen delivery door as well as garbage collection

• Provide visual / spray screen on three sides, with ample room for usage and storage of cans

• Provide adequate drainage

Bicycle / Skateboard / Scooter parking

• Provide anchored fixtures for bike and scooter parking, as well as skateboards

• Locate in supervised area, at periphery of main pedestrian areas

• Consider walkability to school site when determining quantities

• Provide areas for future expansion
