Virginia . Maryland . West Virginia April 12, 2016 Ed Poprik, PRSBO State College Area School District 240 Villa Crest Drive State College, PA 16801 Dear Mr. Poprik: We are pleased to provide you with Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates’ proposal for the State College Area School District’s District Wide Facilities Master Plan. Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates has many unique qualifications that set our team apart from other Pennsylvania architects. Some of these qualifications are as follows: History with SCASD - Our team began working with SCASD in 2012 on a comprehensive facility assessment of State High. We assisted the district in an effort to pass the referendum through actively engaging the Community through the development of a structured series of public meetings and community outreach workshops and charrettes. We will apply this same approach to the District Wide Facilities Master Plan. Our CRA team will remain consistent, bringing their knowledge of the District and process used at State High. Educational Program/Sustainability – Our experience with the District has given us valuable insight into the educational vision and the goals and expectations of the Administration and Board of Education. In addition to this we will have Rob Pillar, AIA, ALEP, LEED Ap, Director of Educational Architecture on board as the our in- house Educational Planner. We are committed to looking for ways to enhance the sustainability of the projects and have already submitted two grant proposals on behalf of SCASD for funding to make the elementary projects, High Performing, LEED Gold buildings. Approval Process – Our team is versed on the municipal approval process via land development plans, code review and permitting. Our understanding of the local approval process and working with local code officials will give us the ability to expedite the projects to meet the schedule set forth by SCASD. Thank you again for your consideration. We truly value this opportunity to continue working with the School District. Sincerely, Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates John A. Beddia, AIA, LEED AP R.
