Jewett said the design has been able to achieve many of the project goals but emphasized this is a preliminary design and changes were likely as the project moves forward.

Jewett pointed out many aspects of the design to the school board and district staff. They included:

  • Bus load and unload area with a turnaround located between the CTE and Gym buildings and the stadium area
  • Student drop-off and pick-up area with access via the corner of Shuksan Street and Golden Eagle Drive
  • Student parking would be located in 1 lot with access via Malloy Avenue
  • The current senior parking lot would be used for staff parking
  • Memorial Drive access would be limited to buses and staff vehicles
