The Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District takes great efforts to ensure that all schools are clean safe, and funct ional. To assist in this effort, the districtuses a facility survey instrument developed by the State of California Office of Public School Construct ion. The results of this survey are available at the schooloffice, at the District office, or on the Internet at WWW.pvpusd.k12.ca.us. Below is more specific information on the condit ion of the school and the effortsmade to ensure that students are provided w ith a clean, safe, and funct ional learning environment.
Age of School Buildings
This school has 31 classrooms, a mult ipurpose room, a library, and an administrat ion building. The main campus was built in 1964. At that t ime is was calledMargate Intermediate School. Due to declining enrollment the school was closed in 1991 and then, because of increased enrollment District-w ide, reopened in2002 as Palos Verdes Intermediate School. Between 2002 and 2004 portables were added to the campus. Seven are used as classrooms and two are used forlockers.
Maintenance and Repair
District maintenance staff ensures that the repairs necessary to keep the school in good repair and working order are completed in a t imely manner. An onlinework order process is used to ensure efficient service and that emergency repairs are given the highest priority.
Cleaning Process and ScheduleThe District Board of Educat ion has adopted cleaning standards for all schools in the district . A summary of these standards is available at the school office, at theDistrict office, or on the Internet at www.pvpusd.k12.ca.us. The principal works daily w ith the custodial staff to develop cleaning schedules to ensure a clean andsafe school.
Deferred Maintenance BudgetThe District part icipates in the State School Deferred Maintenance Program, which provides state matching funds on a dollar-for-dollar basis, to assist schooldistricts w ith expenditures for major repair or replacement to exist ing school building components. Typically, this includes roofing, plumbing, heat ing, aircondit ioning, electrical systems, interior or exterior paint ing, and floor systems
