2014-2015

The POBCSD school district Comprehensive School Safety Plan (as required by the SAVE Law – Safe Schools Against Violence in Education – Commissioner of Education Regulation 155.17) has been established to provide for the safety, health and security of both students and staff and allows for input from the entire school community. This particular component of Project SAVE is a comprehensive planning effort that addresses risk reduction/prevention, response and recovery with respect to a variety of emergencies which may occur in the school district and its component school buildings.

The purpose of this plan is to provide emergency preparedness and response instructions, information, communications procedures, and guidelines to protect the safety and well-being of students, staff, and visitors at the time of an emergency. A standardized plan has been developed for all Rochester City School District (hereinafter known as "District") buildings to promote coordinated preparedness measures and integrated emergency response procedures. This plan is designed to be used as a baseline to be adapted to the capabilities and needs of each building. This plan also serves as a planning and execution document to coordinate the actions of city and state first responders.

An Educational Facilities Master Plan is a written document that describes the school district’s real estate and capital improvement requirements and its strategy and school specific plans for meeting these requirements over a 6-10 year period. On the real estate side, educational facility master plan elements will address the space needs for schools, administration and logistics, including proposed site selection, school closings and consolidations, attendance boundary changes, leasing, joint use and co-locations. On the capital improvement side, educational facility master plan elements will include: the justification, scope, schedule and estimated cost for major repairs, modernization and new construction.

Most educational entities confront any number of facility issues. Upgrading the physical infrastructure to meet current and future demands can be intimidating. The quantity and magnitude of capital issues in a changing environment can be overwhelming. How can all this complexity be made coherent to assure that decisions are sound and limited resources are wisely allocated?

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.

Oyster Elementary School was originally built in 1926 as a ten-classroom school.  In 1971 the school began teaching English and Spanish as second languages on a limited scale; it soon became a two-way bilingual program, where all students are taught in both Spanish and English.  It is now a nationally recognized program with an enrollment of 310 children in pre-K through sixth grade.

Bruce Monroe Elementary School, 2009

This document describes the extensive and complex programs, services and operations of Bruce Monroe Elementary School which is currently in consolidation at Park View Elementary School. It is primarily intended to be used by a developer and architect to formulate a site plan - - and eventually a new school design - - for sharing the former school site with residential, commercial or retail development along Georgia Avenue.

The new elementary school at the Bruce-Monroe site is proposed as a public/private partnership, where a portion of the site will be developed for another use. This is expected to help off-set the public cost of the school. Discussion of what type of development partner would be compatible with the school is not included here. While any development on a portion of the site will have an impact on the size and conditions of the school portion of the site, the educational program goals and the resulting school facility needs remain fairly constant.
