Public invited to weigh in on design and position of new school
Design for a new River Road/El Camino del Río Elementary School is underway. The new school is currently scheduled to break ground in 2015 and open in fall 2016. This schedule depends on having the location and configuration of the new school building finalized in the coming weeks. Public input is needed!
Community members are invited to a public meeting on Thursday, September 25, about the design and position of the new River Road/El Camino del Río Elementary School. Participants will get an update on design progress and siting options, ask questions and share comments with the design team.

River Road/El Camino del Río Elementary School is one of the four schools, among 4J’s oldest and most inefficient, that will be replaced or renovated over the next few years. The existing school was built in 1953 and is in poor condition. It will be replaced with a new school building that will provide better learning environments for students and will cost less to operate. It’s all thanks to voters’ approval of the 2013 school bond measure.
