Isbell Middle School Modernization Project

Isbell Middle School Modernization Project

Isbell Middle School currently serves approximately 700 students in grades 7-8. The school is situated on a 14-acre site at 221 S. 4th Street in Santa Paula, with frontages on S. 4th Street and Harvard Boulevard. The District proposes to modernize Isbell Middle School to meet current educational needs and improve safety for students, staff and visitors while preserving the historic character of the school. The Project would involve replacing some existing buildings, including the main building, multi-purpose/cafeteria building, portable classrooms, and other structures, with new, safer, and more efficient buildings. The modernized campus would include a new administrative building, multi-purpose room (MPR), and seven new classroom buildings. The Project would also include parking and circulation improvements including expanding the parking lot along Harvard Boulevard and establishing a student loading zone. The school’s student capacity will increase from 700 to 750, with no planned increase in staff. The school will continue to operate at normal hours, with adult education classes in the evening.
