Take a trip by Bloomington High School and you will see that our Capital Improvement Program kicked off the new school year in high gear. BHS is home to the first of several major construction projects that will start across the district during 2010-11.

The new Bloomington High School Math and Science Building will sit on the corner of Laurel and Santa Ana and will give the campus new classrooms, new science labs and a new look when it opens next year. The Colton High School Math and Science Building will begin its construction in January 2011, bringing similar improvements to the corner of Valley and Rancho.


 

 

Le invito a que pase por la escuela preparatoria Bloomington (BHS); verá que nuestro programa de ampliación de capital ha inaugurado el nuevo ciclo escolar con altos bríos. En BHS es en donde tenemos varios de los proyectos de construcción principales que se harán a través del distrito durante el año 2010 – 2011.

El nuevo edificio de matemáticas y ciencia de Bloomington se localizará en la esquina de Laurel y Santa Ana; el plantel contará entonces con nuevas aulas, laboratorios de ciencia nuevos, y una apariencia renovada cuando lo inauguremos el año entrante. La construcción del edificio de matemáticas y ciencia para la escuela preparatoria Colton (CHS) empezará en enero del 2011, veremos entonces mejoras similares en la esquina del boulevard Valley y la avenida Rancho.

The Colton Joint Unified School District proudly announces the release of the first in a new series of Quarterly Reports to keep the public informed of its progress on construction projects and its capital improvement program.

In the nearly ten years since Measure B passed, the district successfully administered $102 million of voter-approved Measure B bond funds. In November 2008, 73 percent of voters again showed their support for school improvements and passed Measure G for $225 million. The first series of Measure G was issued in December 2009 for $45 million, which will allow CJUSD to continue to plan, design and construct projects initiated under Measure B.


 

 

El Distrito escolar unificado de Colton anuncia orgullosamente la emisión del primero de una serie de reportes trimestrales para mantener al público informado sobre los avances en sus proyectos de construcción y su programa de ampliación de capital.

Al estar por cumplirse los 10 años desde que se aprobara el plebiscito o medida “B”, el distrito ha exitosamente administrado el bono de $102 millones en fondos obtenidos con aprobación de los votantes. El 73% de los votantes mostró nuevamente su apoyo a mejorías escolares en noviembre del 2008 al aprobarse la medida “G” por $225 millones de dólares. La primera etapa en la serie de la medida “G” se expidió en diciembre del 2009 con $45 millones de dólares los cuales permitirán que CJUSD continúe planeando, diseñando y trabajando en proyectos iniciados bajo la medida “B”.

 

 

 

GRAND TERRACE HIGH SCHOOL

Construction Continues as Usual!

“Although boring to some, given the long, arduous journey of this project the last 10 years, this is exactly where we want to be,” according to Darryl Taylor, the new Director of Facilities and Planning at CJUSD. Recently-hired Mr. Taylor is working closely with the District’s Program Manager, Seville Construction Services and the project construction management team, Vanir, to get up to speed on this project, learning its history. Setbacks as well as triumphs punctuated site acquisition, funding, and start of construction activities. However, the positives far outweigh the challenges as attested by future Grand Terrace high students who recently elected the Titan for the school mascot and turquoise and black for its school colors. Grand Terrace High School, when complete will represent another triumph for Colton Joint Unified School District.

NEW MIDDLE SCHOOL #5
Site block wall under construction, school construction starts Fall 2010!

Construction has started with the building of a concrete block wall and installation of a perimeter chain link fence to secure the new 14-acre campus. Actual construction of the new middle school will begin in late fall of 2010.
Middle School #5 has been designed to house 1,325 students in grades 7 and 8. The new library media center and the multi-purpose/PE facility will be located at the front of the site along Valley Boulevard to provide easy access and use by the community. The school will have an interior courtyard that is laid out to promote an atmosphere for socialization and circulation in an easily supervised setting. These and other features are the direct result of numerous meetings with teachers, parents, and community members, all coming together to develop the most successful learning experience and community resource possible.
