Pfluger Architects, having met with Del Valle ISD leadership, Staff, community members, and Del Valle ISD Trustees, have developed a schematic building design using the feedback they gained during these initial collaborative meetings.

The schematic design elements are inclusive of, but not limited to, the following:

Schematic Design Concept Elements:

• Both schools will have a one-story floor plan but could have different finishes or materials to make them unique from one another.
• 800 Student Functional capacity / 1,000 Student Architectural capacity
• Approximately 99,600 square feet overall
• Grades served: Pre-K through 5th grade
• Separate drop-offs for autos and buses
• Covered canopies at drop-offs for shade and inclement weather
• Two playgrounds (age-appropriate)
• Secured outdoor spaces with fencing
• PE play area near the gymnasium
• Landscaping will be minimal and easily maintained
• Courtyards will consider shade, security, and access to make them more usable to students and staff
• Furniture will be age-appropriate to allow for the flexible use of space
• Library, gym, and cafeteria should be easily accessible after hours without giving access to the whole school.  This includes access to toilets.
