Document Description
The SCUSD has prepared a Master Plan intended to modernize the campus and update facilities for current and projected school needs at Westwood Elementary School. Full buildout of the Master Plan includes replacement of most of the buildings on campus and would ultimately support 27 classrooms and a maximum capacity of 584 students, which represents ten fewer classrooms and 162 fewer students than are currently accommodated, and other on-site improvements. Phase 1 (targeted for completion in Fall 2026) includes: a new multipurpose building, cooking kitchen, shaded outdoor lunch area, kindergarten shade structure, and metal PE shade structure; new drives, parking, and entry plaza; and accessibility, utility, paving, fencing, and roofing improvements. Other future Master Plan improvements include field/blacktop improvements, removal of all portable classrooms on the site, classroom modernization including new kindergarten and preschool classroom buildings, a two-story classroom building, additional student support spaces, maker space, an administration building, shade structures, and additional drives and parking lot reconfiguration. Currently, funding has only been identified for Phase 1 with other improvements identified in the Master Plan to be completed as funding becomes available for each phase. No new uses are proposed by the project.
