Accessibility & Inclusiveness • Increase quality of accessibility routes and features. Curriculum & Programming • Increase quantity of flexible spaces, large and small, for daily learner use. • Design outdoor learning and nature spaces. Following the Building-Level Community Forums, design meetings were held for each facility. These meetings included the Paragon team, the facility’s principal, the Chief Financial Officer, and the Superintendent, with the goal of translating community input and district priorities into actionable long-range facility plans. Each design meeting was informed by the outcomes of its respective Building-Level Community Forum and Subcommittee Meetings to ensure the proposed solutions were firmly rooted in student, teacher, principal & community feedback. The Paragon team focused on incorporating High and Medium priority items into the design options and were also able to thoughtfully incorporate lower-priority items where possible. For each facility, 2-3 design long range plans were presented, featuring detailed floor plans and site plans. During these sessions, each decision point was reviewed in depth to allow the district team to provide critical feedback on what would work, what wouldn’t, and what elements were most important to the community. The feedback gathered during these meetings was used to revise and refine the following design options that represent the long-range multi-phase improvements, not necessarily one single step project.
