Exterior with Students Community/Planning: OWP/P | Cannon Design has served Grant Community High School District 124 since 2005. This series of additions and renovations has created a fresh identity for Grant High School and enabled the district to deliver third millennium teaching and learning.
Interior of Fieldhouse Lobby Learning/Physical Environment: The team relocated the school's existing library by creating a new 13,360 sf addition to house a Learning Resource Center, computer labs and several classrooms. High ceilings and low shelving provide openness in the resource center. Smaller learning spaces were created through organization of furniture and fittings. The resource center accommodates casual seating for individual learning, large movable tables for group or class collaboration and technology spaces. The design also maximizes the benefits of natural light. North-facing glass in combination with an eastern exterior sun-shading device minimize glare and create an inviting interior. (Continued on previous page.)
Exterior Day Learning/Physical Environment : (Continued from previous page.) The team also designed new educational wings for a science and art expansion. These additions added approximately 62,000 sf of classroom space to accommodate increased student enrollment. OWP/P | Cannon Design further expanded the campus with the addition of a 60,000 sf field house that serves as the new home for varsity athletics and physical education. The field house is accompanied by a plaza that serves as a gathering area and connection among all sports facilities, including a new synthetic turf sports field with bleachers.
