Agenda Item Summary: The purpose of this Board brief is to create a one stop reference point for the public and School Board members of work which is related to, but preceded the High School Project. This Board brief contains all documents from Work Group and School Board meetings during their development as well as the final documents for the following efforts:

• Educational Specifications
• Long Range Educational Facilities Plan

Background: The High School Project commenced in July 2018 to solve a capacity deficit and simultaneous seek to better our high school academic program. Multiple years of prior work identified the need for this significant planning effort, including the High School Educational Specifications, Long Range Educational Facilities Plan (Phases I and II), and Grade Level Feasibility Study. The process for the development of these three sets of final documents and the final documents themselves offer insights to the history of this project and more research to support the project direction.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the School Board review the materials; bookmarks can be used to navigate the document.
