Overview
- Students will use surviving buildings plus about 30 modular classrooms placed on the baseball field.
- District officials say the temporary classrooms are essentially ready, and work now focuses on preparing intact facilities.
- The move ends months at a repurposed Sears site in Santa Monica, during which about one in six students left the school.
- A $266.6 million rebuild runs through 2029, with phase two set to construct 30 classrooms and restore the baseball field.
- Initial costs will come from voter-approved bonds as the district seeks disaster relief and insurance reimbursement, and some parents have raised safety concerns over potential soil contamination.
