Teams at Shorecrest and Shorewood High Schools are in the midst of work that will lead to designs for the replacement/modernization of both buildings.
This process has brought together architects, parents, staff and students at each school to consider what a new high school might look like.
In the initial phase, two possible locations were studied for the new Shorewood, the current site and the Shoreline Center site, which housed the former Shoreline High School. The School Board ultimately decided that the replacement/modernization would occur on the current Shorewood site at North 175th and Fremont Avenue North.
The Phase I process for Shorecrest involved doing an assessment of the physical structure, building systems and the current site at 15343 25th Ave. N.E.
The next phase for each school is to develop conceptual design elements, followed by schematic design development, prior to a bond issue anticipated in winter 2010. The current bond issue approved in 2006 included funds for the design of both high schools.
Architects have been selected for each school. Integrus Architecture http://www.integrus.net/ is working with the Shorecrest design team and Bassetti Architects http://www.bassettiarch.com/ is working with the Shorewood team.
