Date: Fall 2017
Size: 127,231 gsf

Located in Rapid City, SD in a town of 69,854 is the new Rapid City South Middle School. Just southwest of the historic downtown district, tucked away in the neighborhoods lies the existing South Middle School. The project will be broken into two phases. Phase 1 will consist of a new 98,960 gsf facility attached to their existing community center and existing gym facility giving the school a total 127,231 gsf. Phase 2 will consist of demolishing the old school and constructing new play fields and parking lots.  The building layout captures the school’s needs while introducing new educational design features to enhance the quality of space for the students and staff. With construction estimated to start in March of 2016, the students, staff, and community of Rapid City should be expecting a new state of the art facility to last for generations to come in late 2017.
