Tax implications $50M hypothetical school project: 10 cent increase in property tax. 4 cents for schools / 6 cents for rest of city CIP $75M hypothetical school project: 12 cent increase in property tax. 6 cents for schools / 6 cents for rest of city CIP $100M hypothetical school project: 14 cent increase in property tax. 8 cents for schools / 6 cents for rest of city CIP Charlottesville property taxes are currently $0.95 per $100 of assessed value. (state average $1.04 per $100 assessed value) Would temporally max out our debt ceiling / capacity for other projects. For how long? More operating funds would go toward debt service 08.03.2021 7/21 Working Group discussion Community Design Team Meeting #5 12
Direction to Design Team Don’t do things half-way just to spend money now at both campuses. Reconfiguration must occur within this first phase of work (5 th grade can’t stay alone at Walker) Spend $60M at Buford • Develop three Buford schemes at $60M and estimate cost in late August. • Some level of renovation to all existing buildings to remain. • Align with state averages on sf / student. Explore ranges between 140-150 sf / student. • Continue to plan on a 2023 construction start to save on construction cost escalation. • Energy performance is important PreK to occupy Walker building A, plan for future building • Minimum investment to allow PreK to occupy Walker “as-is” • Prioritize outdoor play/learning spaces and portable improvements like furniture • Develop & estimate 2 schemes for new construction that we could plan / fundraise around 08.03.2021 7/21 Working Group discussion Community Design Team Meeting #5 13

Why is investing in middle school so critical?

Why? Because the young adolescent brain is: Experiencing a period of great plasticity Extremely sensitive to environmental cues Experiencing tremendous growth in cognitive skills Image Source: Alliance for Excellent Education (All4Ed). https://all4ed.org/science-of-adolescent-learning/

What are Key Developmental needs of young adolescents? ● Sense of belonging and purpose ● Positive identity development ● Agency and leadership ● Positive social interactions and relationships ● Goal setting, competence, and achievement ● Flexible problem-solving ● Openness to exploration and novelty ● Opportunities for autonomy and self-direction ● Physical activity
Association for Middle Level Education - This We Believe Affirms that successful schools for young adolescents must be: Responsive: Using the distinctive nature and identities of young adolescents as the foundation upon which all decisions about school are made. Challenging: Cultivating high expectations and advancing learning for every member of the school community. Empowering: Facilitating environments in which students take responsibility for their own learning and contribute positively to the world around them. Equitable: Providing socially just learning opportunities and environments for every student. Engaging: Fostering a learning atmosphere that is relevant, participatory, and motivating for all learners
What does this mean for middle school spaces? That they should… ● Message that students are valued ● Affirm diverse ways of being and knowing ● Provide opportunities for physical movement ● Promote social interaction and collaboration (formal and informal) ● Foster student-centered and self-directed learning ○ Maker spaces ○ Flexible learning spaces (including moveable furniture of different types) ● Encourage exploration and self-expression ● Allow for focus and reflection ● Integrate technology for learning ● Engage multiple senses
