Totaling 10.3 acres, the new campus includes 23 classrooms, a kindergarten building, an administration building, library, food service kitchen, and multipurpose room, with the various buildings laid out in a horseshoe configuration. The site has a modern multipurpose room with an audio visual system, play and track fields, and playgrounds for children's recreation. There will also be a 103-stall parking lot with student pickup and drop off areas.
Guests from the board, cabinet, district staff, elected officials, faculty, students, and parents gathered on site for a ribbon cutting ceremony to honor the legacy of teacher, Sally Buselt, and learn about the future of teaching and learning at the new campus. Site tours took guests in and around the facilities.
“We're extremely pleased to continue building our presence in Menifee,” said Andy Feth, Project Executive at C.W. Driver Companies. “Sally Buselt Elementary School will serve as a benchmark of excellence in educational infrastructure, with a commitment to quality at every turn.”

With the addition of Sally Buselt Elementary School, C.W. Driver Cos. is supporting the growing need for educational institutions in the area.
