Bartlesville Public School Facilities

An elementary school at 3000 Wayside Drive was built in 1959 for $125,080. Like Ranch Heights, it began with four classrooms, an all-purpose room, lunchroom, kitchen, teacher's lounge and principal's office. In 1962 it grew just as Ranch Heights had the previous year: a $240,620 addition added six classrooms, an auditorium, music room, and altered kitchen and lunchroom. Five classrooms were added to Wayside in a 1993 bond issue, a 1998 bond issue provided for air conditioning in the gymnasium, and a 2000 bond replaced a major retaining wall behind the school and removed fabric and vinyl wall covering from interior walls, which were then textured and repainted.

In May, 2007 a bond issue was approved that included six new classrooms for the building and would improve parking and traffic flow for the site. In September, 2007 the Bartlesville School Board approved a contract with Ambler Architects to provide architectural services to the District for the future addition, and authorized the use of construction management as a project delivery method.
