People are asking…..
What are the Capital Campaign goals?
School: The primary goal was to improve the facilities with a top priority on school safety.
Parish: New offices and more gathering spaces are needed.
Has a new building been designed? What’s the status with the entitlements and county approval?
A new building has been designed and approved by both parish and Diocese leadership. The new building will include the parish offices, the multi-purpose room and the school offices. With the help of several parish volunteers, the project has been warmly received at county staff levels, neighborhood groups, the County Design Review Committee and the County Traffic Committee. All indications point to approval, without the need for additional neighborhood input or extensive traffic studies. A special thank you to Anthony Hernandez, Aaron Porter and John Banchero for their stewardship through this process. We encourage everyone to review the renderings and the drawings.
When will construction start? And finish?
In order to begin construction this summer and be completed for the 2017-18 school year, we need to hit $5.5 million dollar in pledges by 4/15.
What’s the plan for the interim period?
Although not finalized, the idea is to set up modular classrooms at the east side of the parish center. This location is the closest point to a power source next to the Parish Hall.
Will the modular layout be separate and secure from the construction zone?
Yes, we will have an interim fence between the construction zone and the modular layout. The construction entrance will utilize Arden Way, and the school entrance will be on the North end of the property (North of the Parish Center).
