CSUN-LAUSD Proposed High School
Note this started on www.sherwood-forest.org before the Northridge Community Council was formed and was moved from that site to the Northridge Council Site.
PROJECT OVERVIEW Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) proposes to construct a new high school (grades 9 through 12) on the CSUN campus.
As of June 2000, two Valley high schools--Monroe and San Fernando--had a combined shortage of 5,921 seats
. The proposed high school will help relieve overcrowding at Monroe High School and place a new high school near the greatest student population in need.
This school is proposed as an academy high school, which will share the use of California State University Northridge (CSUN) science and language laboratories and athletic facilities (LAUSD, 2001a). The school will prepare students for a career in education. The LAUSD would obtain from CSUN the approximately 5.3-acre Zelzah Court site in exchange for the 10.3-acre site including streets Prairie Street Elementary school which will be destroyed and converted to a parking lot as current LAUSD projections do not indicate a demand for elementary seats in Northridge.

11-7-01 We request, due to the need for more information and community input on the issue of the proposed Academy High School Number 1 on Zelzah on the California State University Campus in Northridge, that the decision on the school be delayed for 60 days after the Removal Action Workpaper (RAW) plan is released so that all questions about it, the Preliminary Endangerment Assessment (PEA) and the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) can be answered.

For the full DEIR about the project. The DEIR was in a PDF file is so large it is unusable to most internet users. I have converted to the standard internet format and loaded it here for the community to read. LAUSD still refuses to make this report available in a usable form.
