West Ada has a variety of school capacity levels,with Silver Sage being the smallest(capacity 405) and Meridian High School being the largest (capacity 2400). As a result of a fairly uniform building design at the Preliminary Residential Plats elementary level,many of these schools have a similar capacity of 650 students. The same is true at the middle school level, where starting in the 1995 with the opening of Eagle Middle 015 School,West Ada has continued to build the same facility to ° 125 serve middle school students. Lewis&Clark Middle,Saw- zu tooth Middle,Heritage Middle,and Victory Middle utilize the 823 same floor plan,which provides enough classroom space for Y 1,000 students. 69 �°s� z3 �^ 201 237 At the high school level,the building designs are 598 1� less uniform,but nevertheless the high school capacities are 533 428 ,063 similar,with Eagle High,Mountain View,and Rocky Moun- zza '° tain designed to serve 1800 students. Centennial High has a 5 141 44° °,44 193 12 b slightly larger capacity of 1900. 1,9 53° 95 ME 173 Projecting future enrollment utilizes approved prelim- ° inary residential plat data,census data on students per house- 1 51 z319 hold,and also considers historic enrollment increase trends. 105� 107 5 The preliminary residential plats are mapped across the district 336 using ArcGIS,a geodatabase software. The individual plats are then queried to calculate the number of future residential 2 9 31- dwellings by geographic area. Using the 2010 U.S.census data, 77 the number of future homes is used to calculate future enroll- 5 ment by attendance area(elementary,middle,and high). This q Q n data was incorporated into a worksheet with formulas that can then calculate future enrollment by attendance area. 3g These calculations were compared to Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS) growth data and historic data. COMPASS is an area-wide planning agency that largely forecasts for city and road planning pur- poses. On a district-wide basis,the COMPASS data would predict that enrollment would increase by 1400 students,on av- erage,per year for the next 10 years. This,however,is 400 students above the the school district's rate of student enrollment increase. All of these students,of course,will not enroll in West Ada schools,instead electing to enroll in charter or private schools or to elect to home school. The comparison between COMPASS and the district's historic enrollment increase provides some confidence that calculating on average increase of 1,000 students per year is a reasonable estimate.

The estimates were made based on when, in total, enrollment exceeds capacity at each set of grade levels by the number of students to fill a new school. For example, in fall 2020,projections estimate that there will be 1852 more high school students than capacity in the district's current large high schools. The challenge with this timing is the enrollment num- bers in some geographic areas will create significant challenges. For example,in the fall of 2020, Eagle High could have enrollment of 2444 students with a capacity of 1800. Whether these enrollment numbers materialize depends on the rate of construction and sale of proposed residential subdivisions across the district. 11/27/2016 Growth Summary with 12 yr build Cap I Current I Predicted enrollment Sep-16 Sep-17 Sep-18 Sep-19 Sep-20 Sep-21 Sep-22 Sep-23 Sep-24 Sep-25 Sep-26 Sep-27 Sep-28 High School Centenial 1900 1888 1893 1899 1907 1913 1918 1923 1931 1937 1942 1947 1954 1962 Eagle 1800 1909 2042 2176 2309 2444 2576 2710 2845 2980 3111 3246 3378 3528 Meridian 2400 2160 2243 2329 2412 2498 2584 2668 2752 2834 2918 3004 3086 3185 Mt.View 1800 2114 2160 2206 2251 2294 2341 2387 2432 2477 2524 2568 2613 2665 Rocky 1800 2230 2274 2316 2360 2403 2446 2490 2530 2573 2615 2658 2703 2749 TOTAL 9700 10301 10612 10926 11239 11552 11865 12178 12490 12801 13110 13423 13734 14089 Excess 601 912 1226 1539 1852 2165 2478 2790 3101 3410 3723 4034 4389 Middle School Eagle 1000 1571 1671 1270 1316 1361 1405 1450 1494 1540 1585 1631 1676 1727 Heritage 1000 1320 1343 1159 1172 1184 1196 1207 1219 1232 1242 1254 1266 1280 Lake Hazel 10001 959 9791 1000 10221 1041 10621 1083 11031 1125 11461 1165 11851 1209 Lewis&Clark 1000 1156 1162 1171 1178 1186 1192 1200 1207 1214 1223 1231 1238 1246 Lowell Scott 1000 1019 1019 1020 1021 1021 1022 1022 1022 1023 1024 1024 1025 1025 Meridian 1250 1208 1262 1242 1265 1287 1310 1333 1354 1377 1399 1420 1444 1468 Sawtooth 1000 1179 1188 1196 1206 1215 1223 1232 1240 1251 1260 1268 1277 1287 Star(Open 2018) 1000 0 0 779 878 975 1075 1173 1271 1369 1468 1566 1665 1776 Victory 1000 790 810 830 851 870 890 909 928 948 968 987 1008 1030 TOTAL 92501 9202 9434 9667 9909 10140 10375 10609 10838 11079 11315 11546 11784 12048 Excess -48 184 417 659 890 1125 1359 1588 1829 2065 2296 2534 2798 Elementary School South Elementary 4860 4752 4836 4922 5006 5090 5174 5259 5342 5426 5514 5596 5680 5774 MID-WEST elementary 8035 7337 7511 7689 7865 8044 8216 8390 8569 8745 8919 9097 9274 9471 MID-EAST elementary 3611 2771 2779 2786 2794 28011 28091 2816 2825 28321 28391 2848 2854 2863 North Elementary 2950 2261 2460 2661 2862 3062 3264 3463 3666 3867 4066 4265 4465 4690 TOTAL 19456 17121 17586 18058 18527 18997 19463 19928 20402 20870 21338 21806 22273 22798 Excess -2335 -1870 -1398 -929 -459 71 472 946 1414 1BB21 2350 2817 3342 12 Plant Facility Levy The plant facility levy is a voter-approved levy that generates revenue that is allowed to be used for capital projects, building maintenance,site acquisition,and capital purchases. West Ada School District has received plant levy authority from its voters since 1972. The levy was reauthorized in 1982, 1990, 1998,and 2007. The voter authority granted in 2007 expires after the 2016-2017 school year. Unlike a supplemental levy,which sets a fixed amount that a school district can levy,a plant levy sets an amount up to which a district can levy. The 2007 election provided West Ada School District the authori- ty to levy up to$20 million per year for capital projects. With a proposed Over the last 10 years,the district has levied,on average,$15,096,480 in plant levy revenue. plant levy of up to This does not count the 2010-2011 school year when the district levied$2,394,214 to pre- $16 million per year vent an increase in the school district's levy rate during the height of the recession. and the current total Unlike other taxing districts,an increase in the market value does not increase the amount property value, the of revenue received by the district. Instead,the cost per$100,000 of taxable value decreas- levy rate will decrease es. For example,West Ada levied$20 million in plant revenue for the 2014-2015 school $23 per $100,000 year,resulting in a levy rate of$142.50 per$100,000 of taxable property value. This school year West Ada also levied$20 million in plant levy revenue,but because the total taxable of taxable property property value has increased by$2.8 billion,the resulting levy rate is now$118.80 per value. $100,000. Parents and community members have consistenly given West Ada Schools high marks for how well the school district's schools are maintained. However,survey results also indicate that maintaining schools is also a priority for parents. In the verbatim responses this desire for quality schools is reflected in comments from parents about specific areas of school that need to be repaired or improved. This data is used to help direct plant facility project planning. 2014 2015 2016 100% 96% 0 100% 96% 92% 100% 96% o 91/ 89/0 80% 80% 80% 60% 60% 60% 40% 40% 40% 20% 20% 20% 0% 0% 0% The district's The district's The district's The district's The district's The district's schools are clean schools are well schools are clean schools are well schools are clean schools are well maintained maintained maintained Percent"Strongly Agree"and"Agree" Percent"Strongly Agree"and"Agree" Percent"Strongly Agree"and"Agree" 13 Plant Facility Expenditures Over the last decade,West Ada has used plant facility revenue to repair roofs,carpet and paint schools,construct new school space,and make capital improvments. Some of the major projects over the last 10 years include the following: • Construction of Renaissance High School Provided 800 additional high school seats,helping relieve Standard Maintenance Replacement Schedule: overcrowding at the district's large high schools • Construction of Willow Creek Elementary Roof Replacement 10r cycle Provided relief for Paramount Elementary,which had Carpet Replacement 10 year ear cycle student enrollment over 800 in a building constructed for Painting 7year cycle 650 students Blacktop Replacement 25-30year cycle • Construction of Pathways Middle School Seal Coat 10 year cycle After 10 years,provides a classroom building for a school that had,since its inception in 2006,been operated in a collection of 10 portable buildings • Remodel of Meridian High School Expanded the school's capacity by 300 seats,improved electrical and HVAC systems, created classrooms that follow the district's standard size configuration(900 square feet),and updated systems to meet the educational needs of the 21st century Maintenance projects typically consume the majority of plant levy revenue as budgeted in the 2016-2017 school year.

These requests are analyzed and prioritized in a series of categories based on the most pressing needs and the estimated costs. Following are the plant facility categories in a typical budget year: • Paint Examples include applying external sealer and interior and exterior painting. • Blacktop Examples include fixing damaged sidewalks,repairing and replacing failing parking lots,replacing tennis courts,and fixing running tracks. • Floors and Ceilings These projects include replacing floor tiles and worn-out carpet,re-finishing gym floors,and fixing ceiling tiles. • Mechanical systems The district maintains a variety of cooling and heating systems depending on the age of the building. Projects include replacing furnaces,heat pumps,exhaust fans, and HVAC units. • Roofing School roofs are analyzed and replaced on a 20-25 year cycle. A new elementary school roof costs approximately$700,000. • Minor building improvements Examples of these projects include fixing and and re placing broken of worn out windows,sinks,toilets, wallpaper,gymnasium equipment,drinking fountains, door locks and hardware. • Electrical These projects generally update older electrical systems either to increase their capacity or to improve safety. Interior painting at Pepper Ridge Elementary • Plumbing These repairs include repairing sewer lines and water lines, replacing fixtures,replacing water heaters,and completing other plumbing repairs. • Irrigation/Playground Playgrounds and school fields often require fence repairs,equipment repairs or replacement,tree removal, and installation of gates to the grounds for public access. 77 _Z' Replacement of track at Mountain View High School Christine Donnell Elementary Re-roof Project 15 Plant Facility Budgeting • District Projects District plant levy projects are usually either to acquire property to build future schools or large capital projects. For example,Willow ?_ Creek Elementary was built over a three year period using plant levy revenue to meet the demands of overcrowding. • Technology Examples of technology requests include district network-wide equipment in addition to upgrades to school computer labs or school-level equipment needed for the district's computer network. • Custodian 4 Custodial requests include large-scale cleaning equipment including floor scrubbers,backpack vacuum clean ers,pressure washer and other devices needed to keep schools clean. • Grounds Grounds requests include mowers,irrigation equipment,vehicles,and equipment for fertilizing grounds. • Curriculum Curriculum purchases are typically for educational materials used in classrooms across the district. • Career Technical Education Spending from the plant levy for career technical programs is often for the remodel or development of classroom space to offer a career technical program. For example,the program requested funding to develop a diesel mechanic Eagle High School Exterior Paint program at the Ada Professional Technical programs housed at Meridian High. • Miscellaneous Examples of uncategorized projects include replacement of portable buildings,installation of bike racks, enclosure of elementary libraries in existing buildings,purchase of white boards,installation of new lockers, or replacement of safety and lab equipment. Pathways Middle School opened in 2006 in a collection of 10 portables. The portables have served about 1500 students since its inception. Groundbreaking on a permanent facility was in November 2016. The 25,000 PATHWAYS ID LE SCHOOL square foot school building will _ open in the fall of 2017. The �� . project's cost,which was funded by the Plant Facility Levy, is $6.2 -� million. 16 Capital Projects 2017-2027 West Ada School District maintains 4,418,769 square feet of building space in 56 facilities. Maintaining these facil- lities over the next ten years will require a similar investment of as has been made over the last ten years. Since 2007 the district has average just over$15 million in Plant Facility Revenue. Based on that experience,with the addition of 10 new schools by 2028,a Plant Facility Levy with authority up to$16 million per year should be adequate to maintain the communities$454,913,004 investmenent in the current schools. In addition to ongoing maintenance,the Plant Levy would allow West Ada to make improvements to existing facilities to bring them up to 21st Century standards of educational environment. Some of the following potential capital projects could be funded in part by the Plant Facility Levy,while others might become part of future bond measures: Site Acquisition for Future Schools West Ada School District currently owns five elementary sites. To prevent development costs for land,purchasing property in advance of development saves the district-and its taxpayers-on the cost per acre. To stay ahead of development,West Ada will need to purchase at lease one additional site north of Chinden and another site south of 1-84. Because a square mile and a half of residential development at 3.5 homes per acre generates enough elementary Stu- dents to fill an elementary school with a capacity of 650 students,additional site will also need to be acquired in North Meridian. Fortunately,these sites,which are 8 to 10 acres in size may be donated by the development community. Secondary sites,however,are more difficult to acquire v / by donation. A typical middle school site is 28 - 30 acres;a high school site is approximately 55 acres. Over the next ten years West Ada will need to add - three high school sites and three middle school sites to its inventory in order to meet the need for schools in ' the future. r 1 / Current Sites for Future Schools ►_ (see appendix) Elementary Sites Birchstone Creek(Linden Park) -NW corner of Black- cat Rd. &Ustick Rd.

Remaining 'wc e undeveloped space in the facility is still available for classroom space that will provide adequate classrooms for a 800 students. This is the - final phase of the Renaissance project. Lake Hazel Elementary and Eagle Elementary School of the Arts Lake Hazel Elementary,which opened in 1974,is a school design un- like any other in the West Ada. The configuration of the classrooms, which are pie-shaped,are not conducive to handling the class sizes typically experienced today. More significantly,the school is located Renaissance High School in close proximity to Lake Hazel Road,which was a lightly-traveled rural road in 1974,but has developed into a major arterial today. The parking and bus area is inadequate today,a problem that will be exacerbated as the Ada County Highway District continues on plans to make Lake Hazel Road a major east-west bypass of Boise and Meridian. Making Lake Hazel a viable school in the future may require the school to be rebuilt at the south- ern end of the property away from the expanding roadway. At the same time,the school's capacity could be increased from 539 students to 650 students to provide more school capacity for the enrollment growth projected for south of I-84 in the next 10 years. The main classroom building at Eagle Elementary School of the Arts opened in 1959;the facility on the lower portion of the campus was built in 1940. Like Lake Hazel Elementary,at the time Eagle Ele- mentary was built the location was appropriate for the traffic and - proximity to the road.As Eagle Road has become a more significant .. north-south roadway in West Ada,bus and parent drop-off at Eagle LAKE eAZEC Elementary has become more congested. This problem will continue to worsen over time. Over the next ten years,road improvements _ near the school may provide the opportunity to create access to the school from a less-congested roadway than Eagle Road. The oppor- tunity to expand the school's capacity,increase classroom sizes to meet today's standards,and improve traffic safety could present itself over the next ten years by relocating the main school building on its Lake Hazel Elementary School current property. Spalding Elementary and Pioneer Elementary Gymnasiums Since becoming schools of choice over the last decade,both Spalding and Pioneer Elementary schools regularly operate with more than 700 students. Unlike the elementary schools built today,which have both a cafeteria and a gymnasium,at these two schools the gym and cafeteria is a single,shared facility. This space limitation makes scheduling all students for physical education difficult,an issue that could be solved by adding a gymnasium to each of these two schools. 18 Capital Projects 2017-2027 Meridian High Auditorium The Meridian High School remodel has created a learning environment that matches the learning environments of other West Ada high schools. The remodel and renovation project also increased the school's capacity to 2400 students. The school's auditorium,however,only seats 125 audience members. The art building at Meridian High School is as old and outdated as the academic building. To bring the auditorium to a size that could accomodate a single grade level would re- quire an auditorium for 600. Space that exists and is not in use on the school's campus would make this addition possible. Rebound School of Opportunity Rebound School of Opportunity provides a unique,on-line edu- cation program for students who are 18-21 who never received a high school diploma and also serves at-risk high school students who have had behavioral issues that make the schools closery monitored environment a successful educational environment. The program is currently housed in a leased facility on Water- tower Street. This year the school has nearly reached capacity by mid-year. Without expanding space,some students will need to be turned away,losing the opportunity to offer a program that leads to a high school diplima. In addition,the facility is leased. Over the next ten year,building a permanent facility for this school will both provide a setting to serve more students and also be a more efficient use of- — : tax dollars. Eagle High and Rocky Mountian Artificial Turf -- --- The turf at Eagle High was originally paid for by the school's booster groups 10 years ago. Like other capital assets donated by parent groups,the ongo- ing maintenance becomes the responsibility of West Ada. A group of parents presented a compeling case to the Board of Trustess demonstrating that turf is Meridian High School Articial Turf Replacement a more efficient use of resources than maintaining grass fields be- cause of the signicant increase in the number of students who can use the field,expanding its daily use from football only to band,physical education,and other sports. The process of replacing turf that has reached its expected usage began with the replacement of turf at Meridian High during the summer of 2016. The Eagle High turf will have to be replaced in the summer of 2017 to ensure a safe playing surface. Over the next 10 years,Rocky Mountain will require being replaced. Achievement House Opportunity school is a program for special needs students who need a unique small-school setting to be successful in school. Currently,the program is located in a house on Pine Street that is owned by West Ada School District. With an increasing number of students who need a similar learning environment,the program could be relocated and expanded at a new facility in the area across from the new Pathways Middle School. 19 Capital Projects 2017-2027 High School Academy As the district's student enroll- ment grows,so will the number of students who would benefit from an at-risk high school program. Cur- - rently,the district's three academies serve approximately 525 students, with a total high school enrollmentof 10,301. With approximately 0,00 5 percent of the student popula- tion being appropriate for these programs,and with high school enrollment projected to increase by �.-.- more than 4,000 students,their will be enough qualifying students to fill - an additional high school academy Central Academy opened in the next 10 years. in Fall 2004 Star Elementary Cafeteria Star Elementary's cafeteria/gymnasium was built in 1959,when enrollment at the school was considerably lower than it is today. While past classrooms additions to Star has increased the number of students the school can accomodate,the gymnasium/kitchen has not been updated to serve the increase in students. Currently a separate building from the main classroom structure,conceptual plans,if built,would make the gymnasium/cafeteria a part of the main campus,expand the facility,and update the design and functionality of the kitchen. Idaho Fine Arts Academy Idaho Fine Arts Academy has the potential to double its current enrollment from 200 to 400 students. To expand this edu- cational opportunity and also expand needed high school capacity,the school would be relocated to the property owned by the district to the west of the District Service Center. Using revenue from the sale of the school's current build- ing,the new location would make the school more accessible to a greater number of students by locating it � centrally and also by utilizing the bus shuttle system that currently trans- ports students to Renaissance High 4 School.
