Programming Documents for Pre-K for SA - The City of San Antonio

Space and Adjacency Requirements
Introduction
This chapter deals with the space requirements and functional
relationships portion of the program for the proposed Eastside and
Westside Pre-K 4 SA Early Childhood Centers.
The program for both facilities is the same. Each facility shall include
instructional space related to early childhood education, outdoor play
areas, administrative offices for the center operation and building support
functions related to the program.
In addition, training classrooms for professional development and a
library/family resource room for community outreach are included
at each of these centers. Administrative offices which will oversee the
Professional Development component of both centers will continue to
be operated from the Southside Center currently under construction.
Additional administrative need at the Eastside and Westside facilities was
not anticipated at the time of publication of this report.
The building space summaries and diagrams which follow are intended
to be applied to and included at each site. They are organized into the
following general categories: Instructional / Activity Space for Children,
Administrative Space, Professional Development Space, Building Support
Functions, Exterior Areas and Parking.
A brief discussion of the Non-Assignable Spaces, including, but not limited
to, janitors closets, telecommunications closets, and service/delivery areas,
which have been identified for inclusion in both buildings, is located at
the end of this chapter.
This chapter will serve as a checklist for the design team as they design
and lay out the building(s). The chapter is organized into the following
sections:
• Symbols, Abbreviations and Definitions
