The Los Lunas School district hired D/P/S in 1999 to begin the planning and design of a new career based high school facility that would eventually become a second high school for the district. The vision for this second high school was to integrate both technical and vocational instruction and college preparatory courses in a single, innovative academy. Valencia High School, previously named the Career Academy, needed to be constructed in several phases and remain completely operational throughout each phase. At completion, the school will house up to 1,500 students. The phasing plan was designed to work with the available PSCOC and bond funds and deliver a complete high school, at current PSFA adequacy standards, by the conclusion of phase 5.
