This compact 61,000 sq foot facility for grades 3–5 shares a site with an existing campus in a rapidly growing community. The project challenge was to design the new campus to meet current and future growth within approximately 10 usable acres without compromising instructional program goals. Designers collaborated with District staff and administration to create innovative solutions and to design a one-of-a-kind facility that will serve students in this community for years.

This 86,300 square foot third generation prototype new elementary was updated and refined to meet changes in teaching and 21st century learning for a fast-growing community. The compact design can be replicated on any site, making it easy for the District to manage their exponential enrollment growth.

Through a combination of new construction and renovation, this project re-brands and extends the life of the District’s flagship high school. In keeping with the District’s vision of “Igniting Potential–Inspiring Success” this project touches all student programs. From new science labs and classrooms, an enlarged commons, expanded CTE spaces, new competition gym, and an updated stadium and new Field House, this campus will serve, ignite, and inspire current and future students for decades.

Through a combination of new construction and renovation, this project transforms an elementary school built in 1952 into a state-of-the-art educational center that promotes 21st century learning for students in grades 3, 4, and 5.

This project entailed repurposing an existing high school into a state-of-the-art junior high. In order to be good stewards, the Administration wanted to save as much of the original structure as possible. However, portions of the foundation were compromised, creating a unique challenge. Designers were able to save over half of the structure, incorporate 21st century learning and safety components, build in extra student capacity, and extend the life of an important community building.

For a community that has doubled in population since 2008 and is still growing, increased student enrollment in this District is certain. This 89,990 square foot prototype new elementary with capacity for 750 students will allow the District to keep up with an increasing student population, and the consolidated footprint will easily translate to future sites.

This new building addresses the district’s rapid growth and will serve as a prototype building for future growth plans. A community led facilities committee shared ideas and input on how to bring a 21st century learning facility to their students.

This new 2-story, 126,064 square foot campus for grades 2-4 provides a school for a fast-growth district that needed additional capacity. This campus allows the district to accommodate a specific age group – older elementary students – with a facility designed to meet their needs. From durable finishes to multiuse spaces, every inch of this new campus was optimized to get the biggest return on an investment of just over $33 million.

This 170,000 square foot addition and renovation includes new classrooms, administration, competition gym, locker and training rooms, fine arts suite, and performing arts center. The key project goal was to expand high school opportunities for students and build one of the most technically advanced performing arts centers in the state. In a district known for its athletic prowess, this project is an expression of the community’s commitment to academic and fine arts success.

For one rural Texas town, schools are what bring the community together. They are a second home and a part of the village that teaches character and career skills. Following support for a bond that raised taxes 30.5 cents, the district knew its new high school needed to span 50+ years and improve every area of the old campus. From durable finishes to multiuse spaces, a compact 123,900 square foot facility optimized every inch to get the biggest return on an investment of just over $31 million.

This project incorporates 30,000 sq feet of existing space with 115,000 sq feet of new construction to create a state-of-the-art middle school campus on an existing school site. Special consideration was given to ensure that the academic and social development needs of this student population were addressed. Common spaces were sized and located for shared community use, ensuring that this revitalized facility will continue to serve all stakeholders.

This addition and renovation project provides a safe, modernized elementary facility for students in grades PreK – 6.

The project’s scope converted a 1970s high school into a 4-5 campus from the inside-out without adding square footage or changing the building’s footprint. To best serve young learners, classrooms were reorganized by grade and all physical surfaces were replaced. Core spaces were relocated and renovated for greater functionality. Driveways were separated and loading areas were expanded and covered with extra-wide canopies to improve safety and traffic flow, while enhancing campus appearance.

Through both new construction and renovation, this 2-story, 85,745 square foot Pre-K through 5th grade Elementary School created expansion for a growing population, heightened safety and security, state of the art learning environments for students, and fostered community through unique features brought into the design.
