CLH provided landscape architecture design and civil engineering services for Wake County Public School System (WCPSS) Bryan Road Elementary School. This is one of the first schools to incorporate design components to support Wake County’s 2020 Strategic Plan. To create a school system where all students can succeed, WCPSS has implemented the goals that their facilities integrate components to support collaboration, creativity, communication, and critical thinking.
The facility consists of 52 classrooms facility with a courtyard bounded by the classroom wings and the main core. The courtyard includes the play areas for the Pre-K and K-2 students, while play areas for grades three through five are adjacent to the playing field. The multipurpose field serves as a community resource due to interlocal agreements between the Town of Garner and the school system and hosts Town recreation programs as well as student activities. A separate parking area is provided for Town use during the school day. In addition, a walking track along the new greenway is used by both the school and the community.
Located on Bryan Road in Garner, NC, the elementary school occupies the southern portion of its 50+ acre site, which could occupy a future middle school. A bus loop, concrete sidewalks, and more than 100 paved parking spaces provide safe vehicular and pedestrian access.
