Educational Leadership Team

Nauset Regional High School Educational Visioning Kick-Off Meeting Notes On November 19, 2018, an Educational Visioning Kick-Off Meeting was held with the Nauset Regional High School Educational Leadership Team (ELT) in order to review key priorities for the Feasibility Study, as well as a timeline and focus areas for educational visioning Workshops.

Priorities

• The conversation with teachers should be framed using language that the administration is starting to use:

Teachers are • Professional • Empathetic • Collaborative • Intentional

• We should think in terms of Health & Wellness as a basis for learning • A healthy space connects to:

o Light o Sound o Air o Texture

• Health of environment also means being more environmentally conscientious than we are now o Green/Global connections o Sustainability o Nutrition

• Should we have a truly functioning restaurant to emphasize nutrition o Vertical gardens would be great

• Consider STEAM & STEM - Crafts & Arts o How might we integrate arts better? o Our space is really holding students back o BUT, not every place should be multi-purpose

• A community center for learning o What is particular to Cape Cod - in terms of self-reliance o A lower Cape Community Center for education

Students are • Prepared • Interested • Engaged • Creative

Landscape and Civil• Site is relatively flat with gentle slope towards glacial depression

and wetland at southwestern corner of lot; native vegetation dominates site, located less than one mile from coast within National Seashore

• Courtyards serve as circulation spine connecting all buildings and as informal gathering space

• Students gather at fixed benches, seat walls, and picnic tables

• Plantings in courtyards are a mix of trees and shrubs, with larger trees providing shade and character

• Pavement conditions are fair to poor at parking and circulation areas

• Courtyards flood regularly; entrances are sandbagged to prevent building flooding

• Stormwater inlet grates are difficult to clean, exacerbating flooding

• Clear pedestrian connection does not exist across vehicular circulation loop to athletic fields

• Courtyards are illuminated by wall-mounted fixtures. Vehicular circulation is illuminated by pole-mounted fixtures. Lighting levels will need to be measured to determine appropriate coverage.

9. STUDENT CONGREGATION AREAS Primary student gathering occurs along the central pedestrian corridor and in the garden courtyards that anchor the east and west ends of the corridor. Student gatherings appears to be a function of circulation between class blocks. Students gather in small groups along the pedestrian corridor in proximity of building entrances. The largest number of student groups gathered in the plaza space at the east end of the corridor formed by Building F and Building G. The adjacent garden courtyard is a popular gathering area. Picnic tables and benches are arranged informally and set on a mulch bed within a planting area. This courtyard is south facing with strong sun exposure. The west garden courtyard is shaded by Building B and overhead mature canopy trees. We did observe one group of students sitting at the picnic table in this courtyard. We also observed students eating lunch at the retaining walls supporting the southeast corner of the courtyard with views east down the corridor.

These accessible spaces are connected to the building by a network of concrete walkways. The parking spaces, signage, access aisle and accessible route all do not appear to comply with current MAAB standards. The quantity of accessible spaces in insufficient for a municipal building of this capacity.

• Eight accessible parking spaces provided, but signage, access aisle, and accessible route do not meet MAAB standards

• Approximately 300 parking spaces, insufficient for large events

• Unpaved areas are used for additional parking

• Ramps in courtyards are primarily poured-in-place concrete with one relatively new retrofit structure. Only the new ramp meets MAAB standards.

• Primary loading dock is located on north side of Building F and serves kitchen and dumpsters. Original custodial loading dock was repurposed for fitness center and a maintenance shed constructed across loop road near football field entrance.

• A full-height roll-up door provides access to the Boiler Room, and another access door at the southeast corner of building G allows equipment load-in.

• No perimeter fencing exists on site

Woodpecker damage at siding

Original metal casework

Collapsed siding with exposed substrate

Architectural• Exterior wood deterioration due to weather and animals

• Condition of wood varies by facade orientation

• Door & Hardware systems are in various states of disrepair with a mix of non-complaint and complaint door hardware through-out

• Casework is typically original, outdated, and worn; storage is limited due to unit ventilator housed in casework

• Finishes are generally worn: VCT exhibits wax buildup, ceramic tile grout is dirty, plastic laminate countertops are chipped, metal lockers and casework are rusting at base.

• Damage to classroom VCT flooring due to previous water infiltration at windows

• Exterior Envelope with low R-value: 3/4” insulation in wood exterior walls, degrading where exposed to elements. Exposed concrete frame is uninsulated and creates thermal bridge.

• Acoustical treatments are applied inconsistently across campus. Tiles in coffered structural slabs have fallen in places, and fabric-wrapped acoustical wall panels are present in some classrooms.

• Roofs, doors, and windows replaced in 2012 are in good condition

• Sealants are typically in need of replacement

Structural• Single- and two-story concrete and steel structures with basements

• The existing structure is performing well and appears sound

• Structural system is inherently flexible and interior partitions can easily be reconfigured

• Structures do not have explicit lateral load resisting system; existing walls likely assist in resisting lateral loads on the structure.

• Minor cracks in the exterior concrete frames were observed, with some spalling at corners

• No signs of foundation settlement were observed

• No undue vibrations due to footfalls on the supported slabs were observed

• Few signs of past water leaks were observed

• Seismic clipping of all existing masonry walls will be required

• Proposed renovations will trigger an analysis of the existing building and removal or relocation of walls will require the addition of shear walls or braced frames

• Expansion joint between buildings E and N is inadequate and finishes have deteriorated

Structural• Each of the eight existing buildings can be considered separate

buildings structurally. Structural modifications to any one building would not trigger any code mandated structural upgrades to the other buildings.

• Any proposed additions should be separated by way of expansion joints from the existing structures.

• Typical lowest floor is concrete slab on grade. The buildings have partial basements and/or utility tunnels within the footprints of the building. The floor above the basement and utility tunnels is a reinforced concrete slab spanning between reinforced concrete walls.

• The typical second floor is a one-way concrete ribbed slab or two-way concrete waffle slab supported on reinforced concrete beams and columns. Typical roof is similar to the typical second floor construction.

• The roof over the auditorium and field house is metal deck supported on open web steel joists spanning between reinforced concrete beams and columns.

• The exterior walls are unreinforced masonry walls with wood siding.

Mechanical• Generally, all of the mechanical equipment and distribution

infrastructure has reached the end of its useful life an should be replaced completely.

• The two original boilers that have been converted to natural gas are beyond their life expectancy

• Boilers are required to run year round in order to maintain water temperature of 4,000-gal hot water storage tank

• Hot water distribution piping is original and serves campus through a tight underground tunnel system

• Hot water room ventilators are original and typically in poor condition based on age

• DX split systems with outdoor-mounted condensers are installed in select locations

• Indoor heating & ventilation air handler serving the gym is located in the basement mechanical room; unit is noisy and past its useful life

• Exhaust fans serving the gym are inoperable.

• Air handler units with cooling are past their useful life and should be replaced.

Mechanical• Existing pneumatic controls system serving buildings A-G

has issues with actuators and oil in the lines. Compressors supporting pneumatic system are in fair condition

• Electronic controls serving the rooftop DX air handlers in Building N are in fair operating condition but have reached the end of their expected life.

• Science classrooms are served by roof mounted exhaust fans. Some chemistry rooms have fume hoods / exhausted benches. Various labs have underfloor and/or in-bench/casework exhaust duct up to rooftop fans. Operating conditions of fans varies from non-operational to fair condition.

• Auditorium is served by a heating and ventilation air handler. There is no air conditioning for the auditorium.

• Cafeteria is served by heating unit ventilators and fin tube radiation. Kitchen is exhausted to fans on the roof; hoods are in fair condition and were recently serviced. Kitchen is also served by a ventilation fan which brings in unconditioned outside air for makeup. Ducted Cabinet Unit Heaters provide heat for the kitchen. Current equipment is approaching its useful end of life and should be replaced.

Electrical• Electrical infrastructure for campus was installed in 1996 and

is in fair condition. The installed electrical infrastructure is approaching its useful end of life. Availability of spare parts, such as circuit breakers, UL listed for use in the installed panels, may become difficult to obtain.

• Emergency panel loads are mixed between Life Safety and Stand-by systems, in violation of electric code

• The Campus complex is served by a single 200kW diesel genera-tor. The generator is installed in a weather-tight enclosure out-side the boiler room of Building D. The belly fuel tank exhibited visual rust corrosion on the exterior surface.

• The Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) and emergency distribution is installed within a 2-hour rated electric room within the Boiler Room.

• Exterior lighting appears to have been retrofitted or replaced with LED lamps sources. It was reported that site lighting cov-erage is not consistent across campus, creating challenges in crossing the property after sunset.

• Shops contained several outlets without covers or were dam-aged with exposed live parts.

Technology• Cabling systems have been incrementally installed over the

life of the campus, do not reflect current standards, and are not positioned to support the continued expansion of wireless and higher capacity network communications

• The campus fiber optic backbone is functioning and is capable of supporting some of the expanded requirements of a renovation project.

• The wireless networking provides adequate coverage in most of the campus but is not positioned to provide the expanded capacity, coverage, and capabilities that are required by emerging technologies

• The AV systems are a mix of displays, projectors, and audio systems that have grown over the life of the campus; most of the systems are close to or are at their life expectancy

Fire Protection• Fire Protection Systems do not currently exist in the school.

• If proposed renovations or additions exceed 50% of the existing floor area, a complete Fire Protection system will be required.

• A fire hydrant was installed near the northeast corner of Building D when the town water was connected to the school. Additional fire hydrants will need to be installed around the school in locations worked out with the Eastham Fire Chief. A water main loop will need to be constructed to supply water to the hydrants.

• Installation of new hydrants connected to the town water system will make the existing 50,000 gallon buried water storage tank on the southerly side of Building C and the appurtenant dry hydrant system obsolete.

Plumbing• Most lavatories, water closets, and urinals appear to be in good

condition. Lavatories are wall-hung and do not appear to be provided with individual mixing valves to limit the temperature of water provided at the fixture. ADA lavatories have their trap and piping covered with an approved insulation system.

• Several rest rooms are utilized as storage, normally left locked, and fixtures are in poor condition.

• The building is currently provided with a 6” domestic water service without backflow prevention.

• The sanitary piping exposed to view was cast iron and appears to be in good condition, as does gas piping.

• Existing hose bibbs observed at this time appear to be in fair to poor condition and do not appear to have vacuum breakers included as required by code.

• The kitchen plumbing fixtures and floor drains do not connect to a separate grease waste system as required by code. There is no evidence of an exterior grease trap.

• Science lab classrooms are equipped with master gas shut-off valve located near the entry door. Staff reported that some classroom gas systems are disconnected.

Nauset Regional High School The Nauset Regional High School found in North Eastham Massachusetts serves approximately 965 students from grade 9 to 12. The school’s cafeteria kitchen prepares and serves the typical school lunch program in multiple serving lines. There are two lines found within the kitchen boundary as is typical. A third serving line, a deli, was added outside the kitchen within the seating area which is only done when space is limited. Also found in among the seating are multiple cashier stands and beverage displays. Unfortunately, when not in use these items sit outside the kitchen boundary and cannot be secured. The kitchen equipment is well worn, and the kitchen is severely undersized and poorly equipped. For example, the original build for the school included just a walk-in freezer where normally a walk-in cooler and freezer is needed for the number of students being served. Due, to the lack of refrigerated storage many smaller reach-in refrigerators were added to the kitchen area. These additions further worsen the lack of space within the kitchen area. The following observation will reference codes and standards. For the purposes of this report when we reference the health code, we will be citing the Federal Food Code, 2017 addition, published by the FDA as well as the Merged Massachusetts Food Code 2011 addition.

We will also reference the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). It is an independent governing body that develops standards for foodservice equipment design. All equipment, in a commercial kitchen, must be built according to NSF standards Specific Items Floors and walls are constructed of the apprpriate materials. Floors are quarry tile and wall are painted block. These surfaces have held resnobly well with exception to the floor adjacent to the in floor grease trap. The ceilings are in tough shape. They are painted concrete but the surface is not smooth. There are may sufaces and building systems where grease and dust do accumulate. The following are other observations we noted during our site visit. Image 1:

• The walk-in freezer on the right is older than the added walk-in cooler shown on the right. The

smaller cooler was added after the fact. Both compartments are undersized and offer very limited storage capacity.

Image 2: • A close up of the walk-in freezer panels shows a

deterioration of the insulated panel. The thin metal skin of the panels is corroding through. As moisture enters the interior of the panel the insulation begins to degrade, and the R-value of the panel becomes inadequate.

• The Health code requires that the gap at the top of the walk-in coolers be sealed off to the adjacent surfaces as a way to eliminate areas where debris can accumulate.

Image 3:

• The storage shelving used in the storage area is not Health Code complaint or NSF approved since it is made of wood.

• The health code does not allow exposed piping to be run above stored items. A lay in ceiling is needed in this area to seal off the equipment and piping above.

Image 4: • The lighting level in the kitchen is not adequate.

There is also no washable surface between the food preparation are and the duct work above. Exposed duct work, conduits, and building structure is visible. The food code calls for the ceilings above a food preparation zones to be smooth, durable, and easily cleaned. The exposed items here do not allow for easy cleaning.

Image 5:

• A wood cutting board can be seen in this image. Wood topped work surfaces are not allowed in kitchens according the Food Code unless it is being used in conjunction with dough preparation as part
