The new Countryside Elementary School is a phased project with staff and students remaining onsite for the duration of the project. The new 76,000 square foot, 3 story school is constructed on the southeast corner of the property currently serving as the staff parking lot. Staff parking will be relocated into the neighborhoods surrounding the school for the duration of the project. Safety and traffic mitigation is a large part of this project as it is a small site with the existing building and new building being in close proximity, less than 20 feet apart. Once the new school is constructed, demolition of a 2 story 50,700 sq.ft. building and 5,400 sq.ft. of modular building will occur, and the final site will be completed.
