If you want to have a voice in how the school intended to be built on the Genesee Hill site you'll want to attend the meeting at Schmitz Park Elementary School from 6:30 to 8 tonight. The school is located at 5000 SW Spokane Street.
Here's the map if you need it.

The design team for the new school will be there and they want to hear from the community.

The district is planning a multistory building that will serve from 500 to 650 students and meet district guidelines for elementary schools, but the specifics of what it will look like, what it will contain, and where it will be located on the site are all up for discussion.

The Genesee Hill/Schmitz Park Advisory Council shared some links "to get your creative juices flowing," showing some schools that the design advisory team toured recently; please come to the meeting to share your feedback, or e-mail us at gsncouncil@gmail.com with your comments.
