The New San Antonio Campus
Community Benefits: Revitalizing the Neighborhood
The construction of this campus breathes new life into an aging, underutilized commercial space. Located at the corner of California and Showers Drive, this project goes far beyond a school building to provide lasting recreational value for local families and residents:
- State-of-the-Art K-8 Campus: Modern, high-utility classrooms serving Traditional Kindergarten (TK) through 8th grade students
- Brand New 2-Acre City Park: Dedicated public green space funded and maintained in partnership with the City of Mountain View
- Joint-Use Gymnasium & Athletic Fields: Premium indoor and outdoor sports facilities open for community recreation and youth sports leagues outside of school hours
- Vibrant Multi-Purpose Room: A central hub engineered for student assemblies, school performances, and neighborhood civic gatherings
Traffic, Utilities, and Community Safety
We recognize that building a campus of this scale creates temporary adjustments for our immediate neighbors. The Los Altos School District and our general contractor, Blach Construction, are working hand-in-hand with the City of Mountain View Public Works Department to keep disruptions to an absolute minimum.
What to Expect During Construction
- Controlled Site Noise: While heavy machinery is active, all work strictly adheres to city-mandated hours (Monday – Friday, 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM)
- Temporary Street Utility Work: Brief, planned lane adjustments or traffic delays may occur on surrounding streets during standard utility hookup phases
- Permitted Traffic Control Plans: Blach Construction operates under strict, city-approved traffic mitigation permits. Flagged detours, clear signage, and dedicated construction vehicle routes are actively used to protect residential side streets.
- Pedestrian Safety Corridors: Sidewalks and bike lanes surrounding the construction zone are closely monitored and protected to keep local commuters and recreational users safe

This project is funded through a combination of the voter-approved Measure N and Measure EE school bonds.

- Measure EE funds provide the final capital required to complete campus construction.
By California law, both sources are strictly restricted to facility infrastructure, property acquisition, and construction. Absolutely no funds can be diverted to administrative salaries or everyday classroom operational budgets.
