Moseley Architects completed a Master Study, to include a conditions assessment of the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and structural systems, as well as code compliance. There are a number of concerns involving ADA compliance as well as the presence of asbestos containing building materials. At the conclusion of their Study, Mosley Architects presented three options that address the aforementioned concerns, as well as provide an educational environment that meets the needs of students and staff through renovating and reconfiguring every space, ADA compliance, assuring adequate classroom space per VDOE recommendations, expanding the cafeteria, adding an auxiliary gym and 500-seat auditorium, and adding an 8th grade wing through the demolition of the existing east wing.
