Poway Unified School District Long Range Facility Master Plan 2020
Poway Unified School District Long Range Facility Master Plan 2020 is the vision of the Poway Unified School District. The District strives to inspire passion and to prepare every student to thrive in college, career, and life by providing personalized, rich, and rigorous learning experiences.
“Creating culture and conditions to empower world-class learners”
In keeping with this commitment, and recognizing that high-quality facilities contribute to a high-quality learning environment, Poway Unified embarked upon the development of a comprehensive Long-Range Facility Master Plan (LRFMP). The Plan sets a logical course of action for future capital improvements and facility management over the next ten (10) to fifteen (15) years. It is designed to be a “living, breathing” document that will be updated and adapted over time.
