Community involvement is an important component of the design and development of school construction projects.

School patrons, PTA’s, neighborhood groups and the general public are encouraged to participate.

Community meetings begin with the planning phase and continue through final design for each new project.

(Community meetings are held from 6 – 7 PM at the designated school.)

The meetings are hosted by The Facility Group (MAPS for Kids program consultant) and the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Area Public Schools Trust (OCMAPS) Project Office. In an effort to gain input from school administrators, teachers, students, parents and community members, four community meetings are being held for each school that will either be rebuilt for fully renovated. The meetings include: Planning and Programming Discussion, Schematic Design Presentations, Preliminary Design Presentations and the Final Design Review.
