The project includes offices, classrooms, technology workshop, crafts studio, and a teaching kitchen, with a large open game room and it includes offices and conference room for staff.
Exterior site improvements feature an over-flow parking lot doubling as a play court for outdoor basketball and additional court games, and also includes a picnic lunch area and Game Storage Room. The new driveway, retaining walls, staff parking lot with bike racks, trash enclosure, and accessible concrete ramps and stairs.
