Preface “This PGCPS Educational Facilities Plan has been developed in the midst of upheaval and uncertainty around the world. The economic implications of the current pandemic are yet to be realized.” q Prince George’s County is predicting a $130 M deficit and is reorganizing the County budget. q Although the PGCPS budget is largely protected by ‘Maintenance of Effort’, the capital budget may not be as protected. q COVID-19 may impact the ACF package of schools because we have to slow down the selection process to allow for firm financing, but we don't know what the downstream impact may be on the projects. q Closing schools and ‘stay at home’ order constrained community engagement this spring.

Strategic Plan Strategic Funding Initiative Shift Systemic Maintenance Projects to County-only funding and utilize State funding for Comprehensive Modernizations Use only local funding for Staged Renovations to address the most critical needs at more schools sooner and with less disruption. Utilize Alternative Construction Financing (ACF) to construct six to eight new and replacement schools. Reduce the overall construction costs through different delivery methods, reduced scope, and quality control. PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS • www.pgcps.org 10
Update on the Alternative Construction Finance (ACF) Projects • Delay in final submittals and selection of Developer Team to summer • However, the projects are expected to move forward as soon as the fall • On an uplifting note: PGCPS was awarded an additional $750,000,000 over 30 years from the State to do another P3 – increasing total number of replacement schools to 13-14!

Preparing for Boundary Changes A consultant-led Comprehensive School Boundary Initiative that is slated to begin in fall of 2020. The objective is Ø To generate an impartial analysis of current school boundaries, feeder patterns and program locations Ø To develop, with community input, scenarios for adjustments in order to populate new and expanded school facilities Ø To recommend action to balance facility utilization throughout the County. PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS • www.pgcps.org 15
Prioritization of Cycle 2 and 3 Schools Once construction funds have been approved for all Cycle 1 schools, planning and design for Cycle 2 schools will begin. In preparation, PGCPS is contracting for an update of the physical condition and educational adequacy of Cycle 2 and 3 schools. The results of this assessment will be included in the FY22 EFMP update and used to make any necessary adjustments to the priority order of Cycle 2 schools.
