Carroll County Career & Technology Center 5/27/2019 Page 3
INTRODUCTION
The need to renovate and add program space to the Carroll County Career & Technology Center was
identified by the Board of Education over 15 years ago. Originally constructed in 1969 as the Carroll
County Vocational-Technical Center, the building was constructed to house sixteen different vocational
programs and to accommodate 320 students at a time. An addition was added in 1986 to provide space
for three additional programs. After the addition was completed, the center was able to accommodate
380 students at a time. In 1995, the name of the building was changed to the Carroll County Career &
Technology Center. Since that time, the demand for career and technology programs has continued to
increase. The Center currently offers 24 different programs, some of which offer multiple sections, to
approximately 790 students at a time. In addition to the students the CCCTC is able to serve, there are
also approximately 200 students on program waiting lists. Due to the fact that the building is almost
fifty years old and is currently housing twice as many students as it was constructed to accommodate, it
was clear that something needed to be done with the facility.
As a result of this need, the Board of County Commissioners included a project in their adopted FY16-
21 Capital Improvement Plan. The plan included a $60,000,000 budget (half county funds, and half
state funds) in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. Based on this plan, the Board of Education hired Hord,
Coplan, & Macht Architects in 2016 to perform a Feasibility Study for the CCCTC. The study
evaluated the building, site and program accommodation in order to determine what options were
available to meet the current and future CCCTC needs. The options studied included renovations,
additions, and replacement of the facility. The options also looked into providing additional space to
serve the students on waiting lists. Options B, C, and D all addressed the aging building systems, and
the need for additional space because the building is serving double the students it was designed for.
However, all of these options were estimated to cost over $80,000,000. Option A was the only one that
was estimated to be under the existing project budget. The reason for this is that it did not address the
current programs space needs. It only included a small addition for programs to handle additional
waiting list students. After the study was presented to the Board of Education, the Board of County
Commissioners made it clear that the level of funding that they planned to provide was unlikely to
change.
This Educational Specifications outlines the programmatic need for the CCCTC. It was developed as a
result of the work of the Planning Committee and all of the teachers at the CCCTC. The Committee
understands that the budget may limit the ability of the building to meet all of the programmatic needs
outlined. However, the Committee felt it was important to identify the programmatic needs.

PROJECT SCOPE, COST, SCHEDULE
SCOPE OF WORK
This project involves a phased approach to the partial modernization of the Career & Technology
Center. Phase One would include the planning and construction of a 21,000 square foot addition to the
existing Carroll County Career & Technology Center. Phase Two would renovate the existing building
to bring the entire building into conformance with current building and life safety codes. Enlargement
of program space within the existing building is a goal, but it is understood that it may not be possible
for all programs. Maintaining building occupancy and operation during construction will require a
multi-phase construction process.
BUILDING SIZE
Total Gross Square Footage (based on Option A of 2017 Feasibility Study) = 137,775 gsf
Total Gross Square Footage (based on programmatic need) = 203,140 gsf
Facility Size per State formula (eligible for State funding):
750 students* x 240 square feet per student = 180,000 gsf
*Based on the assumption that all CTE programs will be approved by MSDE
BUDGET
The following budgets are based on the Board of County Commissioners decision to include
$60,000,000 as a placeholder for the project during the adoption of the FY16 – 21 CIP:

VISION STATEMENT
The Carroll County Career and Technology Center will be a transformational force in the academic and
professional aspirations of our students with the support of all stakeholders.
MISSION STATEMENT
The Carroll County Career and Technology Center is a first class educational institution dedicated to the
application of knowledge, use of technology, and preparation of students for the future in a variety of
academic and professional fields.
PHILOSOPHY & ORGANIZATION
The role of Career Technology Education is changing as quickly as the careers and industries they
prepare students for. The current center has
(Flexibility and Technology)
The new Carroll County Career & Technology Center must support the mission and goals the CTE
program. It must address current needs and also be flexible and adaptable to be able to respond to future
needs. The natural evaluation of careers and trades, along with the need to adapt to new programs and
increased enrollment requires that the modernized center be planned for flexibility and possible
expansion. Many programs have a waiting list of students, and the facility should be able to
accommodate future expansion of these programs. Also, the possibility of offering new programs at the
center should be considered during the design. Additional programs that have been discussed are:
Plumbing, Software Applications, Geographic Information Systems, and Early Childhood Development
The facility should reinforce the clustering of the disciplines to promote the sense of collaboration
within areas of study. Each cluster should be configured and designed to celebrate its own unique focus.
Additions and renovations should support functional adjacencies whenever possible. Exterior access
and proximity to site features should also be addressed when appropriate.
Ample display areas, both static and active, for student work should be incorporated throughout the
facility. Space within the facility should be set aside for large displays to be viewed from multiple
sides. The use of windows and other display components along the corridors should be used to facilitate
the ability to open up instructional areas for viewing. Display provisions, along with the ability to
provide views into the instructional spaces, will serve to highlight both the process and products of the
CCCTC program.
The introduction of natural light in a controlled manner is critical to provide a modern learning
environment. Every effort should be made to provide natural light into every instructional space.

Carroll County Career & Technology Center 5/27/2019 Page 17
GENERAL SITE CONSIDERATIONS
The school site and its development should be viewed in the same context as the development of the
school building. Instructional areas, service areas, building orientation, maintenance, and community
relationships shall be carefully considered. The following points are to be considered related to the site
development:
1. Parking areas, driveways, etc. shall be designed and constructed for efficient and safe routing
of buses, vehicles and pedestrians.
2. A flagpole area shall be developed to identify the main entrance.
3. All sidewalks and entrance ways shall meet disability access code requirements for grade and
building access.
4. An exterior service area for facility maintenance and delivery of supplies, fuel and foodstuffs
shall be provided adjacent to the loading dock. Two dumpsters will be houses here, and this
area must be screened from view.
5. Building orientation and placement shall attempt to take advantage of existing features (such as
woodlands) and topography. Efforts should be made to maintain, or limit the impact on,
wetlands, streams, forests, and meadows, minimizing the need for reforestation. Afforestation
will be addressed both on and off site. Balanced grading is an important consideration.
6. Due to the fact that the center is on a shared campus, any impacts to Westminster High
operations must be considered as part of this project.
7. The Construction and Transportation exterior courtyards must be screened and have some type
of locking gate for security purposes.
Carroll County Career & Technology Center 5/27/2019 Page 18
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS
Flexibility
Due to the changing nature of the programmatic needs of the center, all spaces should be designed with
flexibility in mind. Flexibility may mean that spaces can function in multiple ways, or it may mean that
spaces can be converted to alternate uses quickly and cost effectively.
Future Expansion
Many programs have a waiting list of students, and the facility should be able to accommodate future
expansion of these programs. Also, the possibility of offering new programs at the center should be
considered during the design. Additional programs that have been discussed are: Plumbing, Software
Applications, Geographic Information Systems, and Early Childhood Development. Particular attention
will be given to electrical, heating/air conditioning and plumbing systems so that they can be readily
extended to accommodate future building expansion.
Technology
The school design should facilitate the integration of technology into every aspect of education just as
technology has become integrated into the world students live in.
All programs offered at the school incorporate technologies that replicate the real world work
environment that students will enter after they graduate.
The design of the school should provide wireless connectivity throughout the building to facilitate the
use of the various technologies required for each program. The design should also provide the necessary
technology infrastructure to support students working between schools and within schools, including the
possibility of districtwide delivery of live or recorded instruction.
Interactive projectors and smart cart technology will be the primary instructional technology provided in
classrooms.
Communications
Communication within the school is important to its smooth, efficient and safe operation. The design of
the school shall provide a two-way communication system between the main office and all teaching
stations and service areas within the school.
Speakers for school announcements shall also be provided in the hallways, kitchen, boiler room,
custodial office, restrooms, general office area, bus loading area and large group activity areas.
Carroll County Career & Technology Center 5/27/2019 Page 19
Security
Areas of the school that will be used after school hours shall be zoned and secured for use independent
from other parts of the building.
The design of the facility is to accommodate locking all but the main entrance during the school day.
The main entrance should have a secure vestibule that forces visitors to enter the school through the
main office
Adequate outside security lights with timing controls and parking area/driveway lights with appropriate
zoned switch controls shall be installed.
Security alarms for detection of intruders shall be incorporated in the basic design. Location of security
control panels shall be designated by Owner.
CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) principles are to be used wherever feasible.
Joint Use of Facilities
The school should be designed to support after-hours use of the building. Various organizations utilize
the school to provide programs to the community in familiar and comfortable surroundings. This project
should strive to enhance the programs offered when school programs are not in session.
Facilities to be used by community groups shall be capable of being security zoned for use independent
from other parts of the building. These areas include (1) lobby - an entrance area to the administrative
section; (2) general office; (3) activity centers - student dining, and kitchen; and (4) lavatories - adult
and student with disabled accessibility.
In addition to areas utilized for community meetings, the Carroll County Community College also
utilizes several lab areas to offer ongoing adult education classes. Although this is a great benefit to the
community, there are times when this impacts the students ability to work on projects. The design of
these spaces should take into account the multiple users that may be utilizing the same spaces.
Carroll County Career & Technology Center 5/27/2019 Page 25
CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION
Program Description
This area shall provide for the successful administration of a grade 9-12 high school Instructional
program, establish and maintain personnel and financial records as required; serve as a reception area for
students, teachers, parents, staff and citizens; oversee the day to day operations of curriculum,
transportation, plant maintenance and operations, student activities, personnel issues, and school and
community services.
Design Considerations
The following functional adjacencies and other considerations should be incorporated into the
arrangement and design of this program area:
The office/reception area should be adjacent to the main entrance, with a secure vestibule so
that all visitors must enter the school through the office during the school day.
Central Administration should have direct access into the Health Suite, and be in close
proximity to the Guidance Suite.

Cluster Description:
Transportation: The transportation department teaches students to troubleshoot, diagnose, and repair
vehicles from body and fender repair to painting, changing fluids and maintenance, to repairing and
changing tires. The heavy equipment program includes rebuilding of engines as well as vehicle
inspection, maintenance, steering and suspension, and troubleshooting electronics and electrical systems.
There is a high demand for technicians in all of the transportation fields. The instructors of these
programs are using facilities that were set up for programs designed for 12 to 14 students. There is little
room for storage and NATEF compliance is jeopardized from having a facility that is substandard. It
would be a bonus to have the cluster with access to the other shops as some of the criteria for each
program use the same tooling and equipment and could be easily shared. If the outside storage area is
large enough we could all use the same area to store vehicles in.
List of Programs in Cluster:
Automotive Service Technology
Collision Repair Technology
Heavy Equipment, and Truck Technology
Design Considerations for entire cluster:
Shared outside storage areas
Shared Exterior Hazmat Area (oil, antifreeze, etc.)
Shared teacher area; copier, meeting table, desk, and a white board for cluster and Program
Advisory Committee meetings. NATEF evaluations and parent/teacher conferences.
Shared parts storage areas (consumables that all programs use)
