On June 7, 2016, Council approved Phase 1 site layout for the north portion of the school site along with a conditional use permit for the project. The request for Phase 2 is to approve the school building only. Remaining site details will follow in future submissions. Planning & Design Commission and Council retain the right to impose reasonable conditions of approval at any remaining phase based upon conditional use factors outlined in Chapter 1118. The campus contains high school and middle school classrooms with separate entrances and parking; essentially two schools within one building. Two stories of classrooms for the different grade levels are located in separate wings of the building. Shared facilities supporting both groups include gyms and locker rooms, cafeteria and kitchens, a service/delivery area, and a performing arts center. The building was designed with a Georgian style of architecture, similar to the North Olmsted Branch Library, sometimes referred to as a Western Reserve look. The Georgian style is highly symmetrical. The building is shown constructed of red brick with stone belt course/trim, decorative brickwork and white trim. The roof is a hip roof with asphalt shingles accented with dormers. The windows are regular with a grid pattern of small panes.
