A 20,000 SQUARE FEET CHARTER SCHOOL FOR
THE JEFFCO SCHOOL DISTRICT – THIS PROJECT
WAS COMPLETED IN TWO PHASES – RENOVATION
OF AN EXISTING 10,000 SQUARE FEET BUILDING,
PLUS THE ADDITION OF A NEW 10,000 SQUARE
FEET BUILDING. CONSTRUCTION WAS COMPLETED
IN 2002.
THE FACILITY PROVIDES 12 CLASSROOMS, A
LIBRARY, TWO MULTI-PURPOSE ROOMS, A MUSIC
ROOM, OFFICES, PLAYGROUNDS, AND GARDEN
SPACE. BY DEVELOPING THE PROJECT AS A
COLLECTION OF “FARM BUILDINGS”, THE DESIGN
REFLECTS THE HISTORY OF WHEAT RIDGE AS A
FARMING COMMUNITY AND THE FORMER USE OF
THE ORIGINAL BUILDING AS A PRODUCE MARKET.
