Kyrene School District
Portable Classroom Replacement Project

In 2005 the Bond Election provided monies to replace portables at eight schools in Kyrene with permanent attached structures.

Prior to the Bond, a needs assessment looked at factors like program placements, before and after school offerings, enrollment, special ed and other programming to determine the proposed design and development of these projects.

Kyrene is a proactive district always looking for the best solutions to maintain the highest standards of health safety and security in our facilities and it was determined that permanent attached structures would be more reliable, safe, secure and healthy than the portable classrooms in use at the time.

In Phoenix, Kyrene de la Colina, Kyrene de la Esperanza and Kyrene de los Lagos are currently in a demolition and utility preparation work phase. When staff returned the week of 7/21 that phase of work will be complete. After school starts, the next phase will begin and continue through first semester into the early part of 2nd semester.
