Read Superintendent Shaps' most recent project update.

The district worked with its architectural and construction management partners to scale down the original scope of work to ensure an overall project cost of less than $10 million.

Our guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for this project, which cannot be exceeded, is $9,827,000.

The district will propose this project to voters in March 2026.

Scope of Work: Moharimet School

Floor plans and renderings may be found below.

General Education Classrooms

Problem Solution
The school does not have enough general education classrooms. The project will build four additional classrooms.

Art Classroom

Problem Solution
Currently, the art room is a general education classroom, and Art is taught in the East Commons. There are no walls, just partial height partitions. There is no sink and no access to the kiln.

By building new general education classrooms, the room with the kiln, previously used for Art, can be made available and art can return to that classroom.

OT/PT Room

Problem Solution
The current OT/PT room is undersized, and the space is shared with the ESOL teacher. Build a new space for the OT/PT, so each program can be delivered in their own space.

ESOL

Problem Solution
The school currently has no ESOL room and the program shares a corner in the OT/PT room. The space is too small and is dysfunctional. By building new, right-sized student resource areas, an office in the existing building becomes available for ESOL.

Speech

Problem Solution

The space is overcrowded and interfering with adequate program delivery. Three speech teachers are currently a space built for two teachers.

 Renovate and add a room in the existing East Commons, which will become the Central Commons. This space is directly across from the other two speech rooms and is an ideal location.

Tutor Room

Problem Solution
Tutors are working in the existing administration conference room. There is not enough space nor an ideal layout for the tutors and students, and the administration does not have a conference room. By building a new room for the Resource Room, tutors can use the existing room, which is the right size for tutoring services.

Conference Room

Problem Solution
The administration and staff currently have no conference room. When meetings need to take place, staff utilizes the Makerspace or huddle around the small table in the principal’s office.

The proposed renovation of service delivery spaces will free the conference room so it can serve its original purpose.
