District proposes multi‑year CTE reconfiguration in A building to consolidate labs and expand media
Summary
Administrators outlined plans to reorganize CTE spaces in A building — consolidating Graphic Design, Media, FACS, Health Occupations and Construction Tech into more functional lab and classroom arrangements, creating shared labs and a broadcast area; the project is planned to be phased and largely complete by the end of the summer for affected staff moves.
During the Jan. 26 Operations & Maintenance meeting, administrators and CTE staff described a plan to reconfigure multiple rooms in A building to improve workflow and create larger lab spaces for career and technical education programs. Proposed changes include combining classrooms to create shared labs for Health Occupations, splitting rooms to house Graphic Design, Yearbook and Digital Media (including a broadcast area, sound booth and control room), converting back hexagon labs into four kitchen areas for Foods classes, and moving Construction Tech into a shop with outside access.
The plan aims to keep related CTE offerings together (Graphic Design and Media; FACS classes together) and to repurpose spaces such as the current break room and small adjoining office (noted historically as a former TV studio) for new functions. Several teachers were identified as impacted (Alyson Smith, Brett McGinnis, Henny Brown, Ryne Koeppel, Beau Shepard, Greg Reis), and staff said most demo work is already complete with an anticipated project completion by the end of the summer for teacher moves. The district will phase work over two to three years because it does not have all funds for the full project upfront.
