Education Buildings

Brandon Valley Intermediate School

Consisting of 104,000 square feet, this design included a common area to accommodate 380 students, larger lockers, and an inviting library with large windows. The main focus, however, was the new “hands-on” smart lab. The STEM activities performed in the lab encourage students to show entrepreneurship, to be creative in their approaches and to learn to work independently and in groups. Several stations in the STEM lab include 3D printing, video production and stop-motion animation. “Kids love it. It’s awesome to see them use their creativity and create different ideas,” said Brad Thorson, school principal. “It’s an awesome addition to our school.”

Besides classrooms, the school includes technology labs, an art room, family consumer science labs, a media center, gymnasium, two music rooms, a multipurpose physical education room, locker rooms, a large central commons, and a kitchen. This project was completed in November of 2013, on time.
