Our Planning Documents
These documents guide the district's bond program and campus improvements.
A facilities master plan is a long-term plan for the District to use, maintain and improve its facilities. It helps establish the projects to be completed in a bond program and includes long-term facilities needs that extend beyond a given bond program.
An implementation plan allocates budgets for the planned projects as part of an overall bond program.
Measure AA & Z Implementation Plan
The Implementation Plan allocates bond funds to specific projects across the district. The dollar amounts in the plan are budget targets for scopes of work, not final project costs. It is a living document: as projects are designed, bid and built, the Board of Education will review and approve updates throughout the life of the bond program.

Facilities Master Plan
The Facilities Master Plan (FMP) is the district's long-term roadmap for using, maintaining and improving its facilities. Built from site assessments and input from roughly 600 community members, it identifies needs across all schools with snapshot-in-time cost estimates. The needs identified often exceed the available bond budget.

District Landscape Standards
Adopted in October 2025, the district's planting and irrigation standards guide landscape improvements at every campus with climate-appropriate, water-wise plant palettes and tree selections. New projects, including tree replacement plantings, follow these standards so campuses stay beautiful and sustainable.

PCS Energy Modernization Program
The district is pursuing energy improvements across its campuses to improve learning environments, increase efficiency and resilience, and promote environmental stewardship.
