Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) Superintendent Jon R. Gundry will join PUSD Board Vice President Tyron Hampton, Congresswoman Judy Chu and Pasadena Vice Mayor Jacque Robinson as well as Cleveland Elementary School students, faculty and parents for a ceremonial ribbon cutting for additions to the campus at Cleveland Elementary School on Tuesday, August 13, 2013.
The ceremony marks the completion of 16 months of construction for the $3.25 million facility. The project was funded by Measure TT, the $350 million school bond initiative approved by voters in 2008. The project consists of a 10,518 square foot addition to the existing campus built in 1934. Within the addition there are three new classrooms, one computer lab, new visible administration area with a lobby, nurse’s station, nurses office, principal’s office, four office spaces for various school programs, new family center, new staff restrooms, teacher’s lounge, and new student restrooms that have direct access from the play areas and fields for easier supervision. The exterior of the campus consists of accessible parking with new staff parking and a new driveway entry. The front of the campus consists of new landscape and accessible pathways to the main entry. The project was designed by WLC Architects and built by CHAP Construction.
A tour of the facility and an ice cream social with students and parents will follow the ceremony that is open to members of the public.
