The <br />2013 Facilities Assessment of the District's 10 Oldest Schools detailed the code deficiencies and <br />substandard building conditions at each location while providing cost estimates to make the <br />necessary corrective improvements. A plan was developed that prioritized the work while at the <br />same time increasing needed student capacity at the elementary and high school levels. The <br />increased capacity had the added effect of deferring the need to construct new schools. <br />
