NHS Project Scope

The Northern High School Facility was completed and occupied in 1972 with an Auditorium and Art Complex added in 1985. The facility is in great need of modernization.

The building core and instructional delivery spaces are not up to today’s standards or code appropriate, additional core and instructional space is needed to accommodate an increased enrollment and site utilization issues need to be addressed. Planning approval for this project was granted in the FY 2013 CIP. The first year of funding is to be requested in FY 2015 over a fiscal period of four years.

The Scope of Services will be further elaborated during the project presentation to be held on April 8, 2013. The basic fundamentals shall include, but not limited to, the adherence to the project educational specification, the guidelines and criteria established by the Maryland Public School Construction Program, any and all agency and code requirements, reviews and responses, LEED format, internal quality control oversight, life cycling, cost estimating and working with the commissioning agent provided by Calvert County Public Schools.

Upon award, the Architectural Engineering Firm will commence with information gathering, site visits, etc. with the assistance of the CCPS Construction Staff. CCPS will furnish drawings and a survey of the present conditions along with any and all assistance we can offer. Progress meetings will be held on a scheduled basis during all phases of the design process.

Calvert County Public Schools Policy Statement, Administration #1930
Regarding Individuals Registered on a Public Offender Registry
Adopted: 10/12/06, Revised: 1/28/13

Maryland Law requires certain sex offenders to register with the State and with the local law enforcement agency in which they reside, work and/or attend school. Section 11-722(c) & (d) of the Criminal Procedure Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland states, ”A person who enters into a contract with a county board of education or a nonpublic school may not knowingly employ an individual to work at a school if the individual is a registrant.” A person who violates this section is guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction is subject to imprisonment not exceeding 5 years or a fine not exceeding $5,000 or both. If a registered sex offender, as determined by the definition contained in the Criminal Procedures Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland, is employed by an interest doing business with CCPS, said interest is prohibited from assigning that employee to perform management, delivery, installation, repair, construction, or any type of services on any CCPS property, including the project property. Violation of this provision may result in Termination for Cause.
