CAREER & COLLEGE PROMISE BUILDING – 18,000 SF 4.1. General Description: This is a new Career & College Promise Building on the North Campus of Rowan-Cabarrus Community College. The facility will be owned by the College, but occupied, as tenants, by Rowan-Salisbury Schools. It will house the Rowan County Early College, as well as touch- down space and administrative support for high school students arriving on campus to take advantage of the College's advanced career and technical education courses. This roughly 18,000 square foot building will house a minimum of seven General Classrooms, one Science Classroom, Administrative Offices, a Cafetorium, a multipurpose space, and a CTE Resource Center. This facility will be distinctly different from a more typical Rowan County High School in that there are none of the facilities which normally support high school extracurricular activities (stadium, athletic fields, auditorium, etc.). The facility will be designed, such that the classroom spaces could be doubled with a future expansion. Building and Site Plans should identify the location of this future expansion wing. The facility will share key core spaces with the College, such as auditorium, computer rooms, and chemistry labs. 4.2. Stakeholder’s Functional Needs/Wants 4.2.1. Rowan-Salisbury Schools 4.2.2.
