Phase 2: 2017-2020

Following phase one, MUSD immediately began reaching out for public voice regarding phase two. This included public round table meetings at Manteca HS and East Union HS to ensure that public priorities were heard.

The Operations Department schedules internal employees to perform much of the ongoing maintenance work using a Routine Restricted Maintenance fund to avoid costs that would be incurred from a third party contractor.

Using this fund, MUSD leadership will be able to prioritize which school projects can be completed in house. Because this fund is limited, many unfunded projects will not be completed.

Manteca High School

Manteca HS has a needs estimate of $30 million in the Master Facilities Plan. Of that amount, $15 million is allocated from Measure G and it is anticipated that $25 million of growth funds will help offset the $15 million in unfunded projects at this campus.

Additional School Projects

Several of our schools have not been closely aligned with Measure G due to limited funds. These projects are planned thoughout the phases. We are planning on addressing as many of these needs as we can through our routine restricted maintenance efforts, but many of these identified projects remain unfunded.

These largely unfunded projects include: Veritas, Mossdale, New Vision HS, Weston Ranch HS, be.tech HS, Manteca Day School, Lathrop HS and Calla HS.

Each of these schools have real needs that as you can see from the graphic at right, we are far short of meeting. These numbers are not included in the phase 3 summary graphic.

High Performing Schools for Every Neighborhood

When families, schools, and community institutions collectively agree upon their goals and decide how to reach them, everyone benefits.

Student Centered Positively Impacts the Community

Meaningful, measurable, and student-centered targets aligned to state mandates and standards equal high performing schools for every neighborhood.

Great schools bring hope and change to neighborhoods that drives local economic development.

Achievement

MUSD students are engaged. We have a 97% daily attendance rate.

MUSD students are improving. For example, in our ELA community, 55% of students in 4-8th grade are making significant progress toward proficiency. As students become well-educated, they become productive citizens and contributing community members.

The National Association of Realtors surveyed home buyers:

• 22% listed a home's proximity to the school as part of the buying decision.
• 29% of the buyers listed school quality as a deciding factor in their decision.
• 91% included school boundaries in their decision making process.
• No more kids in school? Property values near good schools increase regardless.

Great schools motivate students to fulfill their academic potential. This has a ripple effect on siblings, parents, and neighborhoods.

Do communities complement and reinforce the values, culture and learning the schools provide for their students? Or do they negate everything the schools strive to accomplish?

Communities either furnish crucial financial support systems, or the schools lack the resources they need.

How are we Connected to the Community?

Facility Use

We work closely with school sites as the liaison to our community groups. MUSD facilities have been shared with 55 facility users made up of local youth groups, the cities of Manteca, Lathrop, and Stockton, and other non-profit organizations.

Where do you go on a Friday night? Where are you on the weekend with your kids or grandkids? Where are your evenings spent during the week?

How often are you at a baseball, basketball, soccer or football game at a local school?

Beyond sports, how often are you at the high school participating in band, choir, drama, or some other community event?

Employment

MUSD offers local employment opportunity for many community residents. At present, there are 2,833 positions in MUSD—most of them full-time positions.

How does City Development Impact Schools?

We support NEW growth that is fiscally responsible.

This includes having positive relationships with developers who pay developer fees and join local CFD's. This also includes mitigated agreements and reimbursements for modernization projects from the state.

CFD's are crucial for schools as they are circular and not one-time payments. They allow us to leverage bonds on the market to grow in the future. Learn more about CFDs in Manteca Unified here.

A small portion of these funds must also come from the general funds and in all likelihood there will be a need to seek a 2020 MUSD bond.

Why? Because we cannot fund these projects without all these contributors paying their share. If there is a missing chunk, there isn't enough money to do the project. We are 100% in support of fiscally responsible growth. It maintains your communities. It is a must to have a maintenance plan for that community and their schools.

How do Local Funds help?

• Good repair and maintenance of our schools support students and organizations in the local community.
• Modernization projects ensure safe student environments.
• Build more classrooms for increasing student population.
• Employ more educators and classified staff.

Construction Costs are NOT Static

It is also crucial to understand that construction costs are not static and continue to rise. According to independent economic researchers, "Since 1993, the 25-year long-term annual construction inflation for nonresidential buildings has averaged 3.5%, even when including the recessionary period 2007-2011.  The long-term average inflation is 4% for the 20 non-recessionary years during that period. During rapid growth period of 5 years from 2004-2008, inflation averaged 8% per year. Inflation is 4.2% per year for the last 4 years."

This helps explain how several schools in phase 1 needed greater funds to complete their projects in 2017 than was projected in 2014. Similarly, projects to be completed in 2023 could end up costing 136% of their original projection.
