The Hill Farm Elementary School and Campus project encompassed the construction of an 88,800 SF facility, along with all associated infrastructure work. The school features a media center, computer labs, administrative offices, health and guidance suites, a kitchen, cafeteria, a large gymnasium designed for physical education and assemblies, and a playground serving 624 students. The building layout consists of three classroom wings connected by a main concourse, which strategically organizes students into similar age groups to foster a cohesive learning environment. Common-use spaces are positioned off the main concourse, providing convenient access for all grade levels.
This project achieved LEED Silver certification, incorporating numerous sustainable features. These include natural lighting, low-maintenance materials, low-VOC materials, and high-efficiency mechanical systems. Each sustainable strategy was evaluated based on energy efficiency, maintainability, as well as capital and life cycle costs, ensuring an environmentally responsible and cost-effective design.
“From the initial design phase, together we were able to produce superior facilities for the students to occupy at the start of this school year, as initially scheduled, all of which were designed and constructed in under a year.”
