Roseville Joint Union High School District BOARD OF TRUSTEES PAIGE K. STAUSS ANDREW TAGG SCOTT E. HUBER GARY JOHNSON JULIE HIROTA Measure D Progress There has been a flurry of activity since the voters approved Measure D last November. Over the winter break, carpet and flooring were replaced on several campuses and other small paint and furniture projects were completed. Here is a breakdown by site of the work since then. 6th High School – District teachers and staff resolved the final changes to drawings with the architects last Fall and the final plans were submitted to the Division of State Architects in December. We have worked with DSA on resolving concerns over the spring and summer. We expect approved plans any day now. The district will begin the process of selecting the contractor for the project in January and February and intend to break ground in April, or whenever the bulk of the rainy season is behind us. Everything is on target for the scheduled opening of the school in August of 2020! A steering committee of parents has been meeting. The board of trustees has solicited input from over 2000 residents of the new schools attendance area and will be selecting the name, colors and mascot in December. Antelope High School– An architectural firm who specializes in theaters was selected last spring and they have worked with the site staff on the design of the new performing arts center. Plans have been submitted to DSA and we hope to break ground in April on that project. The facility will feature retractable seating that will enable much wider use of the facility than a traditional theater. The football field in the stadium was replaced this summer with a new cork filled turf product that is much cooler than the old rubber filled fields. Granite Bay High School – Design work for a major expansion of the swimming pool is in process. The school has not been able to host playoff water polo matches because of the depth of the current pool. A new softball field was just completed, similar to the work done at Oakmont. The football field in the stadium was replaced this summer as well. We are currently working on the design of our first solar installation in the parking lot at Granite Bay. It will be similar to what exists at Sierra College and Whitney High in Rocklin. Oakmont High School– a new softball field has been constructed complete with dugouts, bullpens and an electronic score board. The gym and pool building had new roofs installed this summer. Design work is in process for a new dance room, a reconfiguration of Career Technical Education spaces, and a new weight room. Roseville High School – Design work is underway on the construction of a new practice gym, wrestling room, girl’s locker room complex. Studies are being conducted to determine the best solution for use of the old (93 year old) facility. The Engineering lab is being completed as well. Woodcreek High School – The front office has been renovated and is much more welcoming. Over half the school had the roof replaced this summer. It is a two-year project with the remainder of the school being reroofed next summer. The timing of many projects is determined by what we can complete during the summer, so as to cause as little impact to ongoing school activities as possible. We are very excited about the improvements to date and look forward to beginning the work on the major projects starting this spring! .
