Enriching the Student Journey
In partnership with the Neenah Joint School District, our team designed a new 455,600-square-foot high school that fosters growth and achievement in all aspects of student life.
As students navigate the school, they will seamlessly engage with various learning environments. Science, technology education, art, and family and consumer spaces are thoughtfully distributed throughout the building, easily visible through transparent connections to adjoining corridors.
The state-of-the-art outdoor fields for both competition and training, along with a two-court competition gym, a four-court practice gym, and an expansive weight and fitness center support the athletic department and community events. The performing arts spaces include an 800-seat auditorium and a versatile black box theater.
