Shared Use

From the OUSD 2012 Facilities Master Plan: As Oakland Unied transitions into a Full Service Community District, each school will increasingly collaborate with community-based organizations, city services, and other partners. Supporting these community schools require some changes to facilities, including extended open hours, allowing access to certain rooms and buildings while the rest of a campus is secured, and new spaces designed with special attributes and amenities. These spaces include:

Dedicated space for Early Childhood Education (Pre-K & Transitional-K) Extra storage for after school programs Private rooms for family counseling Clinics for school health centers Evening access to sports and athletics elds Garden sheds Community kitchens

Schools as Community Hubs Pilot Project San Francisco, CA

The Schools as Community Hubs Pilot Project is a joint use partnership between the City and County of San Francisco and San Francisco Unied School District (SFUSD). The District allows the City to unlock outdoor playground areas for open, unsupervised use at twelve public schools throughout the city (one high school, one middle school, and ten elementary schools) on the weekends and selected school holidays during daylight hours. This project is meant to help increase the amount of recreational space available to the public. Physical and Programmatic Design Features The gates at participating schools have a second set of locks that City sta can lock and unlock. This double lock system ensures that either one of two dierent keys can be used to lock or unlock a gate, allowing the City access to project sites without needing the Districts master key.
