Back to Planning School: What You Need to Know for Successful and Collaborative School Siting

Speakers: Fred Yeager, Assistant Director, California Department of Education, School Facilities Planning Division; Jeff Vincent, PhD, Deputy Director, Center for Cities and Schools, University of California, Berkeley; Cynthia Bryant, Senior Vice President, Government Affairs, California Charter Schools Association; Chris Grimes, Director of Facilities Development, Roseville Joint Union High School District

Strategically locating new schools and revitalizing existing schools with consideration of other public services is an important part of achieving regional environmental goals, increasing service levels to students and the community, and leveraging funding opportunities. Yet, the relationship between school districts, land developers, and cities or counties can be tense, particularly where there is little or no coordination during planning processes. This workshop highlights the guiding principles and standards for locating schools and how these standards can support many of the common goals shared by school districts and local governments.
