Long-Range Facilities Planning
Long-Range Facilities Planning
The Centennial School District is currently participating in a long-range facilities planning process, in consultation with the DLR Group. The purpose of the long-range facilities planning process is to align our facilities planning with the Roadmap ‘27 strategic plan and long-term District goals, as well as ensuring our facilities are equitable, sustainable, and meet future educational needs.
Key Focus Areas of Long-Range Facilities Planning:
- Equity: Ensuring all students have access to high-quality learning environments.
- Sustainability: Making decisions that are cost-effective and environmentally responsible.
- Community Engagement: Incorporating feedback from staff, students, parents, and the broader community.
Timeline of Long-Range Facilities Planning
Phase 1: Needs Assessment (Fall 2025-Current)
The Needs Assessment phase is focused on gathering data and assessing the current status of District facilities. This phase includes:
- School site visits School staff and department listening sessions
- Capacity and utilization studies
- Educational Alignment Summit
Phase 2: Facilities Advisory Committee Meetings (Spring-Fall 2026)
This phase includes meetings of the Facilities Advisory Committee, who will be instrumental in the development of the District’s Facilities Master Plan.
Phase 3: Community Engagement (Fall 2026)
As the District’s Facilities Advisory Committee continues to develop the District’s Facilities Master Plan, we will host two Community Forums, where all members of the Centennial community are invited to share their feedback to inform ongoing plan refinement.
Additional stakeholder engagement, including student feedback and equity-based affinity group listening sessions, will occur at various times across these three phases.
Now Seeking Applicants for the CSD Facilities Advisory Committee
The Centennial School District is forming a Facilities Advisory Committee as part of our Long-Range Facilities Planning process, and is seeking volunteer participants. Committee members will provide important feedback to ensure that our facilities are equitable, sustainable, and meet future educational needs. This Committee will also be involved in developing a long-range facilities plan recommendation for our Board of Directors, in an advisory capacity.
Members of the Facilities Advisory Committee will serve as representatives of their school, organization, and/or community. Participants are encouraged to engage in dialogue with others in the community and share that feedback in Committee meetings. Additionally, Centennial is seeking participants committed to considering the needs of all students and engaging in holistic thinking to address the needs of the District as a whole.
The Facilities Advisory Committee will meet 3-4 times during Spring 2026, with at least 2 additional meetings in Fall 2026. Meetings will be scheduled during evening hours, and interpreter services will be available upon request. The tentative schedule for Spring 2026 meetings is as follows:
- Thursday, March 5 - 5:00-7:30pm
- Thursday, April 2 - 5:00-7:30pm
