Cornelius Elementary School
Project Details
This was new construction school to replace the existing school on the same site. The building is a two-story, approximately 72,000 SF comprised of classrooms, administrative offices, cafeteria, gymnasium, restrooms, and support spaces to serve approximately 500 students. A large site allowed the new school to rise alongside the existing one, maintaining continuity for students during construction. And through a shared vision with community leaders, a portion of the original building will live on—reimagined as a community center—ensuring the school’s legacy as a place of care, connection, and possibility endures.
