Owned by Denver Public Schools, the 28,000-sq-ft commercial greenhouse is the first facility of its kind dedicated to providing public school students with fresh produce.

Funding from a successful education construction referendum came just in time to address aging facilities such as the 80-year-old Skyline Vista Elementary School, which had far outlived its usefulness.

This 360,000-sq-ft high school replaces one built in the 1970s.<

Designed and constructed to meet specialized needs of the Cotting School student body, the 25,000-sq-ft addition—dubbed the Campus Center of Excellence—offers students the opportunity to test skills, boost confidence, practice teamwork and expand imaginations.

When students and parents enter the new 230,000-sq-ft building, they’re met by spaces for computer-controlled machinery, robotics, metalworking, mechatronics and engineering—all of which highlight the school’s advanced manufacturing curriculum based on science, technology, engineering, arts and math (STEAM) concepts.

A fixture in the heart of Atlanta’s Buckhead district since the 1950s, Pace Academy has been transformed by a three-story, 36,500-sq-ft addition that contains two music rooms, science and makers classrooms, administrative offices and gymnasium.

Serving 500-plus students in fast-growing Buckeye, west of Phoenix, the $25.5-million K-8 school is organized with three learning communities operated along traditional age-based grade bands, but the floorplan can flex to an ability-based cohort involving teacher-facilitated learning.

A transformative upgrade and expansion of the 120-year-old school building was aimed at boosting enrollment and enhancing services to students.

Tasked with rebuilding a historic Tampa elementary school that was nearly destroyed in 2017 by the one-two punch of Hurricane Irma and ensuing fire, contractor JE Dunn Construction Co. and architect Fleishman Garcia began a painstaking effort to revive the early 1900s-era brick building into a modern facility. 

New school features bright, daylit spaces designed and built through careful collaboration.
