Federal Way Public Schools purpose The purpose of the 2018 Facilities Planning Committee is: • to establish a shared understanding of our current reality related to FWPS facilities • to establish a shared vision of future opportunities and possibilities related to FWPS facilities • to make a recommendation to the community and the Superintendent for Phase 2 school construction, remodeling and/or modernization for voter consideration in 2018 .

Federal Way Public Schools Capacity & Development Options • For almost two years, seeking property in the North end to relieve elementary crowding. • Without pursuing the rights of eminent domain, buildable land (a minimum of six acres) is scarce and undeveloped land tends to be classified as a wetland or peat bog significantly impacting the time and cost of development.

Federal Way Public Schools Capacity & Development Options • Storefront property also surveyed. A single property north of 288 th offers 42,000 square feet – smaller than the last four elementary schools. • Permitting store fronts for elementary students requires a broad range of modifications ranging from change of use, to building code triggers, and traffic, fire and water compliance. A generic review by the City of Federal Way has been requested.

Federal Way Public Schools Capacity & Development Options • Previous capacity needs have been handled through additions – part of this evening’s discussion. • With the final recommendation to the Superintendent, an in-depth analysis can be done related to the costs of modernizing vs replacing .

Federal Way Public Schools Capacity & Development Options • Expand the distribution of K-8 schools. • Serve more scholars • Minimize scholar transitions • Achievement results are trending upwards
