Campus
Renovation project
In 2004 local voters passed a school bond called Measure A-04. Its objective was "to repair, upgrade, equip and construct school facilities at Arroyo Grande High School, including the school library and restrooms, upgrade electrical wiring to accommodate technology, install energy efficient heating/ventilation systems, classrooms, cafeterias, plumbing, qualify for State matching funds, reduce overcrowding, by issuing $21,350,000 of bonds at legal interest rates, appoint a Citizens' Oversight Committee and perform annual audits to ensure that no bond money is wasted or used for administrator's salaries". [1] The Citizen's Oversight Committee has worked to designate priorities and timelines. The first phase in 2005 involved renovation of restrooms and drainage systems, and extensive renovation of the 500 wing of classrooms. In 2006 the other classroom wings on the Valley Road side of campus were renovated and a new swimming pool was completed where tennis courts used to be. Currently under construction is a new administration and student support center, and a new multi-purpose room with food services. The old administration building has been demolished and the administrative staff has temporarily relocated to a building across from the library. Also, the Boys PE locker rooms are undergoing extensive renovation due to a fire. The final phase will involve new tennis courts, a food court, and a parking area to be located in a section of campus currently used by the maintenance department and some old classrooms that will be removed. It is hoped the construction will be completed by late 2008.
