Center Elementary School

The Center Elementary School, a LEED Silver-certified addition and renovation project, was designed in both scale and materials to seamlessly combine the renovated with the new construction. This efficient and cost-effective solution addresses the district’s educational goals while providing improved and accessible community amenities.

Interiors are bright and welcoming in learning and public spaces. Appropriate daylighting and adjacencies were a prime concern to the building’s layout. STEAM learning takes place directly across from the media center, inspiring curiosity and providing the tools essential to project-based instruction. Color, volume, and a strong outdoor connection foster student interaction and collaboration among learners in welcoming and bright “Team Learning Areas.” A central courtyard provides outdoor educational space and maintains a strong connection to the interiors. The cafeteria presents a clean, bright, and flexible common area with strong visual connections to the outdoors. The auditorium, cafeteria, and gym are easily accessible from the main lobby and separated from learning spaces.

This proud new school serves as a cultural landmark for the community and was completed ahead of schedule and under budget.
