The construction of a new high school at the Overlook site on the West side of the city will create a new state-of-the-art school supporting all of the educational, athletic and community programs for the Steamboat Springs community. The existing high school will become the new home for the middle school that will allow for better learning environments for middle school students and staff. The existing middle school will become part of the elementary school campus at Strawberry Park, adding an elementary school to the District. This plan will result in a total District capacity of 3,170 students with 1,440 at the Elementary level, 760 at the Middle School level and 970 at the High School level with the ability to expand to 1,100 at the high school in the future. 

In addition to increasing enrollment pressures at each of the schools creating not only capacity issues but more importantly programmatic limitations and constraints. Here are some of the current issues being faced by our schools in order to accommodate academic programming and extracurricular activities.
