A New Shores School
Keech Properties improved and provided 7 acres of Area H to the Belmont-Redwood Shores School District. They are currently completing construction on a new K-5 elementary school. The school will serve approximately 450 children and relieve the overcrowding and over-enrollment at Sandpiper Elementary School. Measure C, which was passed by Redwood Shores voters in November 2005, authorized the School District to issue bonds to acquire land and build the new school. Together with Sandpiper, the new Shores School will provide capacity for the 900 elementary-aged children projected to live in the Shores.

The location is ideal for a new school -- there’s plenty of room for classrooms and playgrounds, it’s easily accessible by foot, bike or car and yet is quiet, clean and an adequate distance from environmental problems including the airport, freeway, and power lines.

The new school will open in Fall 2010.
