City school system officials are proposing to build two new schools to replace a handful of aging buildings, including a $125 million pre-K-8 school and a $75 million center for special education. Jorge Garcia, the district’s chief operations officer, said the elementary school would be built at the site of the old Harding High School and serve students who currently attend Beardsley, Edison and Hall schools. Garcia said the proposals were based on recommendations included in a recent facilities study that urged the district to shutter seven school buildings, construct four new ones and perform major renovations on eight others. Garcia described the proposed elementary school as a state-of-the-art facility. He said that unlike older schools, the new one would be fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act and feature air conditioning and proper ventilation.
