Multi-Purpose Room Modernization and Shade Shelter Project
The modernization of the Multi-Purpose Rooms (MPR) across all eight elementary schools in the El Rancho Unified School District is set to bring about exciting changes, creating dynamic environments for students. These enhancements, meticulously planned from floor to ceiling, are designed to seamlessly blend with the existing campus settings without disrupting current programs or teaching methods. Notably, the MPR at Rivera Elementary School will receive a new stage platform, ensuring parity across all sites.
Upgrades will include the installation of ramp entry wheelchair lifts, acoustical paneling, new projectors and projector screens, and digital monitor installations. Moreover, the remodel will encompass a wide array of improvements, including interior finishes such as walls, ceilings, and new LVT floors. Suspended ceilings featuring skylights for natural lighting, a surround sound system, and upgraded LED and stage lighting will enhance the overall ambiance.
Additionally, the project will address ADA and fire safety standards, while also incorporating HVAC and roof access upgrades, window and door hardware updates, stage refinishing with new drapes, and the integration of a PA/clock/bell system. Lastly, new lunch tables and storage/shelving solutions will contribute to creating modern, functional spaces for students and staff alike.
