Poject Details


Gym, Science Classrooms, 2-Story Class Wing, Entry

Phase II – Building Additions: Work began in June 1998 on an $8,000,000 construction project that included a three level, 38,600 square foot Gymnasium/Science Classroom Addition and a 14,000 square foot two-story Classroom Wing.

The Gym addition accommodates locker rooms, weight training, athletic practice room, classrooms, visiting team locker room, training room and laundry/storage areas in the lower level, which have access to the existing outdoor fields. On the main level, a new gymnasium more than doubles the available space for the school’s teams to practice and allows for all-school assemblies. The main level plan also encloses an existing breezeway, creating a new campus entry and student commons area. The upper level includes new and renovated areas for science and high school administrative uses.

The two-story classroom addition provides 12 additional classrooms, allowing the school to increase enrollment as well as accommodate the space needs associated with future renovations to other areas of the school. The exterior design of the classroom addition is complementary to the existing architecture and connects to a new gateway element, which has become a new campus marker and main school entrance.

Through diligent communication with public or private school boards, department heads and teaching staffs, M+H Architects helps educational institutions focus on their immediate and future needs, and on how to get the most for their investment.

Schools offer a unique challenge. Architecturally, every building requires room-by-room functional design. Communication is the key at each step to satisfy the needs of teaching staff and students, and the financial requirements of the school’s board. There are no precise answers. Each school has a different budget and a singular image to project. That's why, for each educational project we undertake, M+H arrives with a clean slate, ready to learn.
