The Menifee Union School District’s newest campus, the Sally Buselt Elementary School, is now open for business. The all new $54.5 mil K-5 elementary school will serve up to 600 students residing in Riverside County. The project was built by C.W. Driver Companies and designed by architect DLR Group | BakerNowicki.
Totaling 10.3 acres, the new campus includes 23 classrooms, a kindergarten building, an administration building, library, food service kitchen and multipurpose room, with the various buildings laid out in a horseshoe configuration. The site boasts a modern multipurpose room with a state-of-the-art audio visual system, play and track fields, and playgrounds for children's recreation. There will also be a 103-stall parking lot with student pickup and drop off areas.
This past July 31, esteemed guests from the board, cabinet, district staff, elected officials, faculty, students and parents gathered on site for a ribbon cutting ceremony to honor the legacy of the beloved teacher, Sally Buselt, and learn about the exciting future of teaching and learning at the brand-new campus.
This is the second project from C.W. Driver Cos. for Menifee Union School District, following the reconstruction of Menifee Valley Middle School, which was completed in 2022. 400 students will begin matriculating this August. C.W. Driver Cos. has started their third project for the district, Kathryn Newport Middle School Phase 2, which is slated to be completed in the summer of 2025.
Menifee, which incorporated in 2008, was recently ranked as the ninth-fastest growing city in the U.S. with a population over 100,000. From 2017 to 2022, Menifee's population rose by 17.4%.
