Cedar Cliff Local Schools
The school was built on the existing school site. The tight site constraints required careful planning to allow the new structure to be built adjacent to the existing building while school was in session. Decorative limestone pieces were salvaged and reused at the main entries. Traffic circulation and site safety concerns were resolved by separating the bus and parent drop off areas and staff parking. The new school has elementary and middle/high school classroom wings separated by a grand two story auditeria. The media center is also centrally located on the second floor between the classroom wings. Balconies outside the media center overlook the cafeteria and stage. The gym and music suites are located away from the classroom wings to mitigate noise issues. The entire building and site were designed with state-of-the-art energy efficient systems, including geothermal and chilled beam HVAC, and energy efficient lighting.
