    Please join ULI Washington for an in-depth virtual discussion on the real estate needs for K-12 schools in DC, and how school renovation and construction projects are planned and funded.
     
    The event will bring together experts in K-12 education planning, design and development to discuss current and future demands on DC’s school inventory and how the region’s population growth and demographic shifts impact the sector. The event will explore the steps within the K-12 education real estate development process, including site location, stakeholder engagement, financing, design, and approvals. The event will highlight challenges and opportunities that are unique to school facility projects and innovative trends in K-12 school development, such as public-private partnerships, COVID-responsiveness, co-location of services, and energy efficiency goals.
     
    The event will spotlight recent K-12 education projects in the DC Metro Area, the circumstances that led to their development, the stakeholders and partnerships involved, and the tools and financing that made the projects work. A question and answer session and networking breakout will follow the discussion.
