Growth Model . The primary goal of the Comprehensive Facilities Plan is to provide well-maintained eXIsting academic and support spaces and to add space as necessary. These needs will be met by the renovation of existing buildings and the construction of new facilities. Between 1998 and 2005, schools will be added. In addition, grade configurations will be changed, at least temporarily, to make efficient use of our existing facilities. In the 1997-98 school year, the district operated six K-6 element:lry schools, one 1-6 magnet school, two 7-9 junior high schools and a 10-12 high school. By the year 2005, we expect to have eight elementary schools, four junior high schools and two high schools, one north and one south of the Mississippi. Until the new high school and two new elementary schools can be constructed, the junior high schools will be used to solve space problems in grades 5 through 10. The current plan calls for a move from the existing K-6, 7-9, 10-12 organization to one that has a K-5, 6-8, 9-12 organization as its basic pattern, at least for the short term. The long term growth model for the district is diagrammed below. This School Board approved mOdel proposes a district with two high schools, four junior highs, and ten elementary schools.
