The Process

APS thinks ahead and plans for this next step in the district’s future with facilities planning.

The Comprehensive Long Range Facilities Plan is a long-term roadmap guided by data and community input to modernize APS schools. Through surveys, meetings, and task force engagement, the public helps shape the district’s future.

Four Elements of a Facilities Plan

We often use the analogy of a four-legged stool in which the seat represents the facilities, and that seat is supported by four legs of equal importance. The legs include:

  • Educational Framework: Curriculum, Programs, Delivery Models, and Policy
  • Demographics: Enrollment and the data that impact enrollment
  • Condition: Physical Condition and Educational Suitability
  • Funding: Ability to fund and sources of funding

Though one of the legs of the stool often necessitates the call for a plan, each of these legs carries an equal amount of importance when developing a facilities master plan. Add the element of community and stakeholder involvement that reflects the culture and values of Atlanta Public Schools and that sets the foundation for a successful planning process.

District Properties

Atlanta Public Schools (APS) is thoughtfully reimagining and repurposing district properties to align with the long-term vision outlined in APS 2040.
