Agenda Item Summary:
|
As a part of a complex and collaborative effort to manage The High School Project (THSP), regular meetings of the core team continue during the COVID-19 closures. The items addressed at weekly meetings include site development issues, schedule and budget priorities, educational and building design programming requirements, coordinating with industry experts, and planning future community/stakeholder engagement events. This School Board Brief incorporates the summary of those areas and includes a copy of summaries of weekly meetings held from June 22, 2020, to August 10, 2020.
The team is transitioning from the planning phase to the design phase to maintain an opening date of September 2024 for the T.C. Williams High School expansion campus at Minnie Howard.

Williams High School at the Minnie Howard Campus.
