Location: Virtual, Teams

Agenda: Playground SIT Working Meeting

Project Overview

Malcolm X Elementary School is a DC Public School located in Ward 8. The modernization will be roughly 63,000 square feet comprising a combination of renovation of the existing building and new construction. Throughout the building, the modernization will address Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. Learning, instruction, and support technology will be brought up to cutting edge standards and capacity. The Project will be designed in such a way to incorporate, at a minimum, LEED for Schools – Gold principles. 

In addition, DCPS is requiring the Project become a Net Zero energy building. The new modernized design shall allow for physical education (gym) and dining services (cafeteria) to take place simultaneously during the school day. Discovery commons spaces, small group rooms, and resource rooms will be integrated into design to accommodate special projects, collaborative work, and individual pull-out instruction.
