Facilities Planning School facilities require planning at many different levels to meet educational and community purposes. Educational facilities planning is needed for operations, maintenance, building and site system depreciation, and education and demographic changes. Facilitiy planning enables states, districts, and communities to align their resources to their needs, ensure that priorities are met fairly, and that facilities are operated, managed, and built to modern health, safety, educational, and environmental standards.
When facilities plans are developed in partnership with a broad and diverse set of school and community stakeholders, districts often find innovative ways to meet their programmatic and building needs.
