The economical single-story design drove the size of the site. An interior donut-style organization separates students into classrooms and squash courts and accommodates the daily student changeovers between the two.
The hybrid program empowers students to realize their full academic, athletic, and personal potential. Construction costs were minimized by using an economical precast concrete box to enclose squash areas, which represent the largest portion of the building.
