Document Description
The Knightsen Elementary School District (KESD) has an immediate need to construct a new elementary school (K-8) to accommodate population growth (due to new housing) in the area. The proposed school site is a 16.35-acre portion of a larger 61.8 property and is assigned APN 015-170-008. In negotiations between the property owner or their real estate agent and KESD the relevant parties have decided that the proposed school site would be located on the southwestern portion of the 61.8-acre parcel. It is anticipated that the proposed school would likely have an eventual student enrollment of about 650-700 students. This student population will be derived from the influx of homebuyers moving into the Knightsen School District area. Typical school buildings and uses all include classrooms, administrative offices, playgrounds, library, parking (for teachers and staff, visitors), internal circulation roads, and landscaping. The buildings will be one-story, wood and concrete frame buildings.
