Long-awaited Upgrades at Two District High Schools
By Diana Stephens
The Acalanes Unified High School District's Governing Board approved construction projects at Campolindo and Las Lomas high schools. Financed through Measure E funding, the projects will include upgrades in technology, electrical systems, and energy management.
Phase One of the construction at Campolindo will include the conversion of three classrooms, storage areas made into office space, the modernization of the Video Production classroom, and the renovation of a women's restroom.
Las Lomas will have its plumbing upgraded and add two bathrooms, replace aging canopies, repair siding and some roofing, while also expanding its 3D Art classroom, as well as renovating the Culinary Arts classroom and the tennis courts.
According to Dave Humphrey, the Director of Facilities and Construction for the District, these projects will be completed during the summer of 2011. In addition, the community can anticipate a new roof to be installed at Campolindo High School in the summer of 2012, and the multi-purpose room/cafeteria/ choral area to be renovated in the summer of 2013.
The current improvements to Campolindo High School are anticipated to be in excess of $3.5 million while the improvements to Las Lomas High School are expected to come in just under $3 million. Let the bidding begin.
