Bracher Elementary Master Plan
On November 9, 2023, the SCUSD Board of Trustees approved the Bracher Phase 1-B projects. Visit the Bond Department's Bracher Elementary Modernization webpage for construction updates.
Bracher Master Plan Phase 1-B Community Update Letter 12/5/23
Voter-approved general obligation bond Measure BB allocated bond funds to design and build improvements to the site, which may include a larger multipurpose with a kitchen and a stage, and improved parking and traffic flow on campus. In order to create a plan that encompasses all of Bracher's assets, SCUSD is creating a phased master plan for the campus.
A master plan is a dynamic long-term planning document that provides a visionary site plan to guide future expansion with enhanced student and community access to the sites. The master plan construction will be arranged in phases of which only Phase 1 is funded.
Areas Included in the Phase 1 Master Plan
Phase 1-A: Completed in Summer 2023
- All-inclusive playgrounds
