Sandia Base ES Supplemental #1 - PSMI
Abstract
The Department of Defense (DoD) Public Schools on Military Installations (PSMI) grant provides funding to remedy the facility condition and capacity deficiencies as identified by the DoD at Sandia Base Elementary School, located on the Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and ranked 42 on the PSMI priority list dated April 2019. Albuquerque Public School (APS) has considered multiple options to resolve the identified deficiencies and examined them based on both the APS Capital Master Plan standards, as well as New Mexico Public School Facilities Authority standards, facility condition, construction costs, and future maintenance and operating expenses. The approved design solution addresses concers identified by the Department of Defense and other facility limitations by replacing the school through a phased construction approach. The construction of new buildings resolves significant issues that cannot be addressed by modernizing the existing buildings, and reduces the time and cost that would be associated with multi-phased modernization. The school will continue to operate during construction. The school currently serves Kindergarten through 5th grade students. The replacement school will have the capacity to serve 576 students, with potential to accommodate a pre-kindergarten program in the future. Funding through the supplemental grant will focus on financial support for construction and ancillary activities, with a target construction completion date by May 31, 2026.
