Description of Project:

The existing Ridgedale Elementary School needed additional classroom for area growth. Our concept design allowed for new classrooms along with renovating the existing spaces. Due to funding constraints, the project was separated into two phases.

Phase 1 consisted of two parts. Part one involved the construction of a two story addition at the rear of the building to include four new PreK/K classrooms and four typical classrooms. Part two involved renovations of existing classroom into PreK/K classrooms.

Phase 2 consisted of three parts. Part one involved a complete parking lot redesign for better traffic flow and the General Officeexpansion creating safe school secured vestibule.Part two involved the construction of a new kitchen and dining room with adjacent toilets connected to the two story phase 1 building. Part three involved the renovation of the existing kitchen and dining room into faculty planning, new Art and Music classrooms with three additional classroom infilling an existing external courtyard.
