Eilemen"t�ary Schools <br />In Phase 1 the facility needs at the Roseville Area Elementary <br />Schools are basic. There is a need across the district for more <br />classroom space. The, Kindergarten and wage 4 projections shover <br />a gradual rise in population over the next 5 years, which wW <br />oaf through the elementary level over the next 10 ye <br />There, is a need for more classroom space to reduce class sizes, <br />and to absorb variations in enrollment for each grade. 7here i's <br />also a great" need for non - classroom space, from gyms to offices. <br />Existing Condition <br />With the exception of Little Canada, all of the elementary <br />schools have not had significant remodeling or additions for over <br />1, ' years. Facilities have had to make do as new demands have <br />arisen in education such as special education inclusion, increased <br />role of specialists, paraprofessionals, etc. The standards section <br />for the elementary schools in Part Two of tWs book 11'sts the <br />spaces included in, our, plans for Phase I.

Because of site <br />m <br />size, we do not recommend increasing Falcon Heights to the <br />capacity of the others. The total number of classrooms is based <br />do <br />on the class sizes and enrollment Projections shown in the <br />Appendix., Par ie Center School,, lotted in an old Junior <br />High building, does' not require additions, but will expand into <br />space ntly used by other functions, <br />
