Bel Aire Elementary School, a California Distinguished School, is one of three (3) elementary schools that comprise the Reed Union School District, Tiburon, California. Reed Union is a K-6 district. Located on the Tiburon Peninsula 20 minutes across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Fransisco, Bel Aire consists of 20 classrooms and other special facilities completed in 1960. During the time from 1960-1980, with significant state and community support, the school expanded its facilities and programs with focus on individual needs and keeping class size at or below 25. The parents of the students in the community are professionals and artisans ranging in income from low to upper middle-class to affluent. They are "well-educated, socially aware, and politically active."

Current state funding for new construction has dried up, so the plan is to update three(3) of the seven(7) buildings on Bel Aires elementary 37-acre campus to bring them up to code, especially to remove asbestos, upgrade for accessibility, improve earthquake safety, and provide for increased integration of technology into the curriculum of this school.

The following proposal deals with that portion of the project that deals with computer technology infrastructure. Other components of the renovation are included in other sections of the whole proposal. Each building is specified separately to allow for cost basis accounting.
