TRANSITIONAL SCHOOL SPACE REPORT - BoardDocs

II. Fishkill Elementary School
The only viable short term remedy the committee saw to alleviate the present
congestion at Fishkill Elementary school is as follows:
• Relocate Fishkill’s Special Education Self-contained classroom to
Evans Elementary School
III. John Jay High School
The following actions would create additional two and one-half (2 ½) full size
classrooms for SY 2006-07
• Relocate the Coordinator of Art and Music (room) to Evans
Elementary School and convert this room into a general education
instructional classroom.
• Convert Room 135 and 102 to general education classrooms.
Presently Rooms 135 and 133 are used as the Math Department
faculty area. Thus, the Math faculty will be assigned only Room
133. Furthermore, Rooms 102 and 100 are presently used as the
English Department faculty area. Thus, the English faculty will be
assigned only Room 100.
• Math and English Faculty Rooms turn into two (2) classrooms.
• Convert half-size adjacent rooms 189 and 190 to a full size
instructional classroom by eliminating wall. Music string lessons
being provided in room 190 (5 & 8 periods) relocate to auditorium.
Adult monitors now in Room 189 would be relocated to a site
identified by the principal. (note recommendation: defer to next
year due to anticipated high construction costs.
• Relocate Project SEA from full size classroom 242 to half-size
room 241. SEA would remain in full size room 240 and thereby
go from 2 full size classrooms to ½ full-size classrooms. Thus,
room 242 would then be used as a full-size instructional room
resulting in a ½ room instructional gain in general education.
• To relieve cafeteria congestion consider releasing students by
table during lunch periods, 3 to 5 minute prior to the change of
period bell.
