San Ramon Valley Unified School District - DOUGHERTY VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL EXPANSION

DOUGHERTY VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL EXPANSION

Measure D includes two projects listed specifically for Dougherty Valley High School. One is a classroom addition necessary to help accommodate future enrollment as homes are completed in the Dougherty Valley. The second is a “Green Technology and Alternative Energy” (GTAE) classroom that is funded up to 50% through a State Grant. Although listed in the bond as separate projects, the District was able to combine them in one building, allowing a savings on construction costs.

The new building is located at the west end of the 1000 wing. This area was designated on the Facilities Master Plan for future classrooms to be built when needed when Dougherty Valley High was originally built.

The contractor mobilized and began construction in March 2015. Construction continued through the 2015-2016 school year. The district worked closely with the architects and project manager to ensure that disruptions were kept to a minimum. The new classroom building addition opened in August 2016.
