New Construction
176,000 SqFT
The new school is a 176,385 sq. ft. facility for 1,020 students in grades 6-8, which includes a full theatrical auditorium, distance learning theater, engineering fabrication lab, fitness center, and gymnasium. The three-story academic wing is strategically organized to place each grade level on a separate floor, with equal access to core facilities, so that every student feels incorporated into a neighborhood. Given the intricacies of the site, the project is laid out with a compact building footprint that utilizes an interior courtyard to bring natural light into all classrooms, and the project includes many sustainable strategies and components which helped achieve LEED Silver certification.
