Document Description
Ceres High School was originally designed for 900 students and currently houses 2,454 students in 90 classrooms. Approximately 50% of these classrooms are portables, most of which are provided by the State of California under the emergency portable program. Currently, Ceres High School needs two classrooms to accommodate current year growth. The school is projected to need two additional classrooms per year for growth and another two classrooms to implement class size reduction in math. The District proposes to add eight State emergency portable classrooms on the east side of the campus. The portable classroom will be placed wholly within the existing campus so no land acquisition will be required. The eight classrooms will be temporary because voters approved a local general obligation bond in the amount of $25 million to construct a second high school in Ceres. The second high school is scheduled to open in 2005 and will relieve overcrowding at Ceres High. The eight emergency portable classrooms will be installed in early 2002. The purpose of the project is to provide additional classrooms for growth and class size reduction. The direct beneficiaries of the project are the high school students, the faculty, and the administration.
