The Educational Specification is intended as the basis for the renovation and expansion of the Grant School Building to serve the needs of The School Without Walls (SWW), an alternative high school program within the District of Columbia Public School System (DCPS). By setting forth very specific requirements, the Educational Specification familiarizes the members of the design team with the requirements of SWW. It is expected that the Educational Specification will be refined before the design process.
The renovation and expansion are anticipated to take place within the context of a public/private venture which would finance the modernization of SWW in exchange for development rights and/or other consideration related to property owned by the District of Columbia and controlled by the DCPS. However, these educational specifications can also be used in a traditional design, bid, build process.
