The Children’s School of Rochester School 15 was relocated to the former School I that was one of RCSD’s oldest buildings, built in the Cobbs Hill neighborhood. The Children’s School Project restores much of the facility’s historic fabric along with a major early childhood classroom addition that creates a fully enclosed/secure courtyard.
The other new features include:
- Six new classrooms.
- Two new Special Education classrooms.
- The full array of resource rooms, including autism supports.
- A shared computer/project classroom, and mini-collaboratorium.
- A dedicated Pre-Kindergarten Wing and parent drop-off/pick-up car loop.
- An expanded café (the original had no windows), and kitchen/serving.
- A receiving dock, holding area, and outdoor equipment storage.
Beyond the reconstruction of the original building, the site improvements include playgrounds, a new bus loop on-site, and 50% more parking.
