partnered with ������ý to help the district replace approximately 80,000 SF of outdated, non-efficient elementary space currently located at 2 separate buildings. The 65,000 SF two-story elementary school is separated into two main zones: public and shared-use areas and the education zone.

The public and shared use areas include:

The educational zone is organized with the PK-2 located on the first floor, with the 3rd -5th grades on the second floor. The classrooms wrap around the sides of the central gym, with quick access to and from that area. The campus features an outdoor learning environment with a 1/8 mile walking path and 3 playgrounds tailored to different age levels. For student safety, a designated bus route will be created that is separate from the general parking.
