Lemonwood Elementary School Phase One Opens

SANTA ANA, Calif. – Phase one of the redesigned Lemonwood Elementary in Oxnard School District (California) is now open. SVA Architects was the architect on the project, with Swinerton Builders serving as general contractor and Caldwell Flores Winters, Inc. as program manager.

The $31.4-million Lemonwood Elementary campus will house 900 K-8 students. The project has been strategically developed on a fully occupied campus with minimal disturbance and no interim housing. The completed first phase includes the main classroom and multipurpose buildings. Phase two, which is underway, will include new kindergarten classrooms and administration buildings and will be completed in 2019.

Additionally, Building 3 of the original campus will be repurposed to provide flex rooms for enhanced kindergarten, transitional kindergarten or preschool programs. When complete, the new 9.9-acre campus will feature 28 general purpose classrooms, four kindergarten classrooms, three science/flex lab classrooms, two special education classrooms, administration areas, a media center, food service, multipurpose room and physical education spaces. The original campus was constructed in 1981 and it was last modernized in 2004.
