Guilford County Schools
As one of the oldest schools in Guilford County, this building was in need of significant upgrades to meet today's demands. This project added a bright, new cafeteria that solved overcrowding and allows all students to efficiently enjoy their lunch and still get back to class in time. The existing cafeteria, originally constructed in 1953, was turned it into a new, state-of-the-art media center that includes an audio/visual production area, staff offices and a flexible use classroom. In addition to the renovation work, significant demolition of the existing building was completed and a 3,000 SF addition constructed to allow for the creation of a computer lab and professional development space. The building also received new finishes, new roofing and a mechanical and electrical upfit of the existing building to better accommodate the new use and features.
