Design Team Purpose
The purpose of the Design Team is to add definition and details to our plans for Sage Creek High School. This new high school at College Boulevard and Cannon Road is scheduled to upon in Fall 2013. Members of the Design Team will represent and provide vital input from the perspective of various stakeholders, including students, certificated and classified staff, administrators, parents, higher education, business representatives, and community members at large.
Team Makeup
The Design Team, lead by Assistant Superintendent of Instructional Services, Suzanne O'Connell, is comprised of staff (credentialed, classified, and administration), parent, community, and student representatives. The goal of the Design Team is to develop recommendations for the Carlsbad Unified School District Board to consider as the opening date draws closer.
There are seven subcommittees:
- Program Focus - STEM
- Bell Schedules
- Founding Class(es)
- School Identity
- Extra-curricular Offerings
- Lottery Language/Options
- Technology/Marketing
Each subcommittee is tasked with researching their topics and reporting out to the rest of the committee as final recommendations are drafted.
