The project provided the school with a new main gym, new band and orchestra classrooms, new science and special education classrooms, a larger instructional media center and larger, remodeled administrative and counseling offices.

Because Golden Triangle Construction and Boulder Valley School District focus on incorporating sustainable building elements, the project also included upgrades to building systems such as HVAC, irrigation and fire sprinklers, which will increase energy and water efficiency.
