I am delighted to announce the completion of our 2012 Facilities Master Plan.This plan, when implemented over the next decade, will guide the MendotaUnified School District’s facilities into the next 20 years with modernized,expanded, and new facilities to allow our great teaching staff to continue thework of educating our students across the District.

Through fiscally prudent decisions over the last 20 years, our District has beengreat stewards of the Communities funds and have been able to build both anew High School and a new Junior High School, however, there is still much toaccomplish to bring our facilities into alignment with our educational vision ofproviding the best learning environment for the students of Mendota. Inaddition, our District is poised to continue its growth as the housing marketbegins to return again in the next few years – our Demographic study suggeststhat we need to prepare to educate an additional 1000 students by the year2022. Further, once the River Ranch Development begins in approximately2022, we may expect an additional 1000 students bringing our Districts totalenrollment to approximately 5,000 students. I believe that it is important tocontinue what we started in the District to make all of our facilities among thevery best in the State for our students in Mendota – they deserve the best.

The Master Plan lays out some remarkable and much needed facilitiesimprovements over the next 20 years. Some of the highlights of this wellthought out plan are as follows:

• Secure land and construct a third elementary school to eliminate theovercrowding at Washington elementary School and to prepare for the pendinggrowth of our community over the next 10 years.

• Modernize both McCabe and Washington Elementary Schools to bring theminto the 21st century learning environment standards.

• Convert all Elementary schools to Pre-K - 6

• Add a new building at the high school to accommodate an additional 300students

• Begin discussions with the City of Mendota on a possible joint use AquaticsCenter and Performing Arts Center at the high school.

• Plan for our fourth elementary school between 2022 and 2030 as well asfurther expansions of both the high school and the junior high school.

• Optimize the energy efficiency of the school facilities through sustainabledesign methods and install solar power generation systems to reduce theoperational costs of the Districts facilities.

• Maintain the cutting edge technology in the classrooms through a technologyrefresh fund

We are fortunate in the Mendota Unified School District to have a forwardthinking Board of Education that have the incredible foresight to invest in thelearning environments of their students which clearly demonstrates theircommitment to their students and community. It also shows their fullunderstanding that excellent facilities can greatly assist the teaching staff toincrease the academic achievement of their students.

I believe that it is critically important that the District embrace theserecommended improvements and rally our Community to continue their greatsupport of the District through the implementation of this Master Plan that willallow school facilities to meet modern educational standards of the 21st century.

Sincerely,Mike CrassSuperintendent of Schools

Superintendent’s Statement >>

District Wide Facilities Master Plan


The Mendota Unified School District is committed to maintain educationalfacilities at a level that enables our teachers to meet the needs of 21stcentury learners. Facilities affect teaching and learning, student and staffhealth, day-to-day building operations, and the long-rage fiscal health ofthe entire educational organization. Thus the purpose of this document isto provide a master plan to meet the challenges of effective facilitiesmanagement. It is simply too big of a job to be addressed haphazardly.

The needs of the community and students drive planning for educationalprograms and support services. In turn, the demands of educationalprograms and support services drive facility planning. In recognition of thisrelationship, the development of this master plan began with assessment ofcommunity needs followed by analysis of the District’s ability to meet thoseneeds. The findings from this process of analysis led to recommendations

contained in the facilities plan found here. The proposed solutions arerealistic and resourceful.

The District is striving to deliver programs and services addressing theevolving needs of all segments of the community and recognizes the impactfacilities have on the teaching and learning process and on workingconditions. In an effort to accommodate the academic needs of thecommunity, the District continues to pursue funding strategies for schoolconstruction and modernization. The purpose of the Master Plan is todisseminate to decision makers and the community the result of planningefforts of the District.

District staff worked closely with the City of Mendota and consultants in thedevelopment of the Facilities Master Plan. The following reports werecompleted and used as resources in the creation of this Master Plan:

• Information Gathering and Facilities Conditions Assessments

• MUSD Educational Specifications and Sustainable Standards

• Demographic Study

• State Funding Eligibility Update

• Joint Use Discussions with the City of Mendota

• Site Selection Process

The Master Plan is intended to guide the development of the District’sFacilities for the next 10 to 20 years. During that time, a continuation ofdemographic changes can be expected. These changes could be of suchmagnitude as to prompt revision of this plan. It is, therefore, important thatthe District continue its planning efforts and be proactive to the changingneeds of students and other constituents. The flexibility of this plan can beexpected to make the District more efficient and effective.

The District will continue to seek input from its staff and community to helpensure this plan adequately meets the needs of the District and its studentsin the coming years.

Master Plan Methodology New Construction

A facilities master plan allows a school district to assess its facilities needsand prioritize its goals for addressing those needs. Therefore, thisFacilities Master Plan is a document that should constantly be reviewed,re-evaluated, and, if necessary, revised.

In collaboration between the Board of Trustees, District Administrationand consultants the following District-wide goals were established:

• Ensure that all classrooms are safe

• Bring all classrooms into 21st Century Learning Environments

• Maintain Flexibility (Financial, Facilites etc.)

• Allow Options for Increasing Capacity to accommodate futuregrowth in the community

• Establish/Maintain Parity throughout the District

• Reduce the Number of Portable Classrooms

• Increase Outdoor Learning Opportunities

• Reduce Transportation Costs

• Maximize Joint Use Opportunities with the City and otherAgencies

• Green our Schools: reduce operational costs

BCA has also prepared the District-Wide Educational Specifications aspart of the Master Planning Process. These Educational Specifications(required by the California Department of Education) will serve as abasis of design for the District’s third and fourth elementary school.This document describes essential relationships, size andprogrammatic requirements for educational and administrativefacilities and the application of these specifications will help ensurethat new facilities are equipped to meet District Educational Goals andObjectives. The following District Facility Standards have beenestablished to guide the design of the new elementary school.

Planning Process >>

Master Plan Methodology Modernization and Addition ProjectsThrough detailed Conditions Assessments prepared to date for the District(as part of the master planning process), we have established “modernizationpriorities”, that will guide the Mendota Unified School District throughproper “scoping” of both McCabe Elementary and Washington ElementarySchools modernizations to the estimated construction costs. The followingpriorities were presented to the Board in the February 13, 2012 BoardMeeting:

Priority 1: Code, health, safety

Priority 2: InfrastructureBuilding shell integritySite utilities

Priority 3: ClassroomsClassroom renovationsNew construction for education program spacesAthletic programsTechnology

Priority 4: Miscellaneous modernizationsSupport facilitiesOutdoor spacesGeneral facility improvements

Planning Process >>


In the McCabe and Washington Elementary School Modernizations, we are focused on how we can accomplish the following:

• Increase Student Achievement through the creation of Safe and Healthy Learning Environments (i.e. 21st century learning environments, sustainable design, etc).

• Protect Existing Assets to keep them from losing value over time through deterioration.

• Comply with Legal and Safety Requirements such as ADA, Building Code,Hazardous Materials.

• Life Cycle Cost analysis to assess the cost of modernization vs. newconstruction thereby allowing the District to make informed decisions bothnow and in the future on the costs of their facilities projects today andtomorrow.

With the construction of a new (third ) elementaryschool additional 800 seats will be provided. Parity is critical betweenelementary schools for all districts, to implement this all three elementaryschools will accommodate grades Pre-K - 6.

Secondary short term goal is to maintain all of the school facilities at thehigh standards expected by the community. Modernizations of McCabeand Washington Elementary Schools will facilitate improvements to thesafety, energy efficiency , and maintenance of the school sites.

Third short term goal is to create a learning environment where every

student will have access to personal computing devices and other tools towork collaboratively and creatively with their peers throughout the schoolday. Both, McCabe and Washington, school sites to receive electrical andcomputer network systems upgrades needed to install robust wirelessnetworks that will allow all students to have appropriate access to web-based resources throughout the school campus.

The new elementary school to receive “smart walls” and casework thatfacilitates the technology used in a 21st century classroom environment.Modernizations of McCabe and Washington Elementary schools to includecabinetry replacement to mirror the efficient and functional classroomcabinetry in the new elementary school.
