KBA collaborated with Achievement First Schools to convert a 75,000 SF former car dealership into a 725-student high school. The project involved a full interior renovation with building envelope improvements and system upgrades. The challenge was designing educational spaces that fit within the existing structural grid. The completed space includes a cafeteria, gymnasium, media center, classrooms, science classrooms/labs, breakout spaces, small group learning areas, and administrative offices.
The renovation prioritized flexibility and adaptability to support diverse teaching styles and learning needs. Abundant natural light, acoustic treatments, and modern finishes created an inviting atmosphere for students and staff.
