As one of the few California High School buildings left untouched during the last bond measure, the science building is due for a freshening-up. Improvements to the classrooms, including technology, storage, finishes, and equipment, is planned. Also planned is a renovation of the teacher prep rooms for more efficient use of space for storage, lab preparation, and collaboration. Construction is planned for summers 2016 and 2017.
