Middle School Construction Site Anaylsis

Site Analysis

Using the Board Approved Option 8 as the basis-of-design a supplementary analysis of the site was conducted to influence building and site design.

Priorities were established pertaining to program adjacencies, student safety/supervision, construction phasing and operational effectiveness.

These priorities will serve as guiding principles which will influence the design of building organization, and site circulation.

Conceptual Plans

  • Middle School Construction Option 1
  • Middle School Construction Option 2
  • Middle School Construction Option 3

Conceptual options were presented for building organization and site circulation. Option 3 was the preferred option.

The building organization is centered around a Main Commons/Courtyard which separates the Public Spaces (Gymnasium, Black Box Theater) from the private educational spaces. Each grade level will be located in their own wing with the Related Arts and Media Center centrally located.

School Road will be realigned behind the school and connect to Arena Road to create connectivity of the entire campus.

Bus Drop-Off and Parent Drop-Off Staging for Bus drop-off and Parent drop- off are separated for student safety. Each vehicle staging serves both the Middle School and High School to decrease traffic between schools. Staging areas are designed for student safety so no crossing of streets are necessary.

The Band Lot was relocated adjacent to the High School Music Department. We recommend a more cost effective design solution is to utilize the new Band Lot as the additional Athletic Field, as proposed in Option 8, to the north of the Middle School. This will eliminate the need to realign Arena Road and relocate the existing Parking.
