Consultants from Opsis and OTAK presented a preliminary schematic design for Molalla River School District’s new middle school during the board’s Jan. 30 work session. The design team described three distinct building zones, placed CTE classrooms centrally in the plan, and led board members through a 3D fly-through of the schematic drawings.
Opsis designers told the board the project’s initial programming priorities were “site, safety, nature, placement, adjacency, and connection,” and said the team consulted with the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde while developing the concept. Contractor Dave Dahl of Pence Contractors said Pence “will be a partner with excellence” in the project. Board members asked questions about parking, site flow and the library layout on the second level. The team outlined the next steps in schematic design and follow-up coordination with the City of Molalla on parking and site access.
