The Californer/10129720

SANTA ANA, Calif., April 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The new Hermosa Vista School in Hermosa Beach, CA, designed by SVA Architects, opened today and welcomed students for the first time.  Hermosa Beach City School District's long-awaited opening of the school has been planned since Measure S passed in June 2016.  Funding to rebuild Hermosa Vista School, located 417 25^th St., came from the $59 million voter-approved bond which addresses the District's overcrowded and outdated schools.  SVA Architects was selected for the District's projects due to the firm's exceptional K-12 resume and its experience in bringing innovative, sustainable learning environments to life.

Hermosa Vista School is the first of a trio of projects funded by Measure S.  Hermosa Vista School is a reconstruction of the former North School, and houses the District's third and fourth graders. The bond also provided funds for renovations at the District's two other schools: Hermosa View School, which houses kindergarten to second graders; and Hermosa Valley School, for the District's fifth to eighth graders.
