Jefferson School Construction Project: Community Meeting

With enrollment at elementary grades growing significantly over the past five years, and a demographic study showing it will continue to increase, classrooms are being created for a new generation of students.

Following a multi-year planning process that included regular meetings of the Site Construction Committee, the Board of Education approved the conceptual design of the Jefferson Elementary School Expansion and Modernization Project, to add classroom space and to modernize the school. Measure I, approved in 2010 by an overwhelming number of Berkeley voters, includes funding for this project. You can get more information here on BUSD's webpage dedicated to the Jefferson Construction Project.
