The Credit Recovery Center, where students make up classes when they’ve fallen behind, could become a school in its own right.
Newport-Mesa Unified school board members on Monday will consider ratification of the Credit Recovery Center as a district school. Doing so will help make it easier for the district to staff it and budget for it.
Costa Mesa High School will also consider an architect to design its new pool. The school board will discuss a contract with HMC Architects for no more than $373,900 to oversee construction of the school’s 50-meter swimming-pool complex.
The complex will include deck lighting for night swimming, fencing, a scoreboard, new bleachers and a storage building.
The firm will provide schematics, design development and all construction documents needed to build the complex. The project is funded by Measure F. The new pool for Costa Mesa High School was approved in May 2006.
