ROBERT FISLER K-8 SCHOOL

Nestled on 10 acres in the heart of a new master planned community. PJHM was hired to design & assist in creating a planning committee consisting of a diverse group of educators, district staff, public citizens, local business owners & city planners & supplemented with more specialized focus groups to further develop individual components of the school such as administration, staff office and work areas, special needs, maintenance and operations, K-8 teaching environments, library-media, technology, science, PE and food service. Designed within the State School Facilities Program, the facility houses 800 students and consists of 7 structures arranged to create a communal courtyard highlighting an abstract colored tropical oasis & amphitheater used for student and community gatherings. Steel entry canopies, stone & redwood detailing create a project comfortably set in its surroundings.
