anchor Description
Projections for Thomas Pyle Middle School indicate that enrollment will exceed capacity by seats or more throughout the six-year planning period. An FY appropriation was approved in the Building Modifications and Program Improvements project for the planning and construction of a third auxiliary gymnasium. However due to the space deficit at the school and the need for additional cafeteria space an FY appropriation was approved for a feasibility study to determine the scope and cost for an addition and core improvements to this school. An FY appropriation was approved to begin the planning for this classroom addition. The Board of Education's requested FY CIP included an increase to the approved expenditures for core improvements that will address the projected student enrollment including a larger cafeteria and additional programmatic/teaching spaces. An FY appropriation was approved for construction funds. An FY appropriation was approved for the balance of funding for this addition. The project is scheduled to be completed September
