Agenda Item Summary:
|
The Perkins Eastman team has drafted three design concepts - Hand, Crescent and Pinwheel - for the Minnie Howard site. The three concepts were designed with previous and ongoing community, staff and student feedback in mind.
Perkins Eastman’s presentation to the School Board includes a detailed description of each potential concept, head-to-head comparisons of the projects and their projected budgets, and an explanation of parking variations.
The School Board is being asked to vote on a final concept at its April 8, 2021 meeting. |

A presentation of the main highlights in the EdSpec was presented at the February 18, 2021 School Board meeting. On March 4, 2021, the School Board voted to approve the full EdSpec document. |
