UPDATE March 8, 2013
Here’s a Union-Tribune article on the subject. A quote:
The 77-year-old San Dieguito Academy campus, which last had a modernization project in 2004, will begin $71 million in projects this year with a new track and field. The school is set to get a new two-story math and science building in 2015, a two-story English, social science and arts building in 2016 and a new gym and upgraded industrial arts building in 2017.
“San Dieguito to begin first Prop. AA projects this year,” San Diego Union-Tribune.
Note that this is an upgrade to the industrial arts building, not a tear-down and replacement!
