PROJECT OVERVIEW

SIZE AND SCOPE

• Planned Enrollment: 556 Students

• Full Modernization of Existing Facility with 75,000 Square Feet addition

• Co-location of BRIYA

• Designed and phased to allow students to remain in current facility during construction

DESIGN PRINCIPLES

• Respond to scale and character of Mount Pleasant

• Simplify and clarify circulation with a main “internal street” connecting all floor levels and all

public shared spaces

• Create age appropriate academic clusters - “Learning Communities”

• Bring views of the park into the school

• Maintain and enhance school garden and community garden

PHASING AND SITE APPROACH

- Requires extensive portable swing space on existing fields

- Loss of one courtyard.

- Greater disruption to learning, since students have to move two times.

- East & West facing classrooms.

- Loss of field on site during construction.

- No portable classrooms required. Students move once from existing building to new.

- Creates a third courtyard.

- North and south facing classrooms.

- New playfield oriented north south.

- Places largest structures at center of site, away from residential streets.
