I noticed two local elementary school construction projects are flying right along.  There are new wings coming for both Lincoln School

Lincoln School addition

and McKinley School which you see here from the El Camino side of the campus.

McKinley School addition

This is quite a bit of new space which is driven by the increasing enrollment we noted here using John Horgan's figures.  I have to believe this new capacity will cause some redistricting at some point.  That's always a tough conversation since people rely on the school selection in purchasing homes.  All five of B'games elementary schools are excellent, but people have their expectations and may not like change.

  1. Power to the schools, we need more schools worked on and this is just the beggining. Cant wait to here about more schools getting the same treatment. Far overdo. Thanks Robert

  2. After the forthcoming parcel tax, looks like BESD will need to float another bond for probably $25 million or so to complete unfunded capital improvements (and cover bond issuance costs)- per this discussion item on tonite’s board agenda. See PDF reports towards bottom of the page:
