The three buildings consists of one three story physical education building, one single story applied sciences building and one central energy plant. All three structures have shallow foundations, a conventional steel structure, elevated concrete slabs, and load bearing masonry walls. The exteriors of all three buildings are comprised of PVC roofing, composite metal wall panels, and brick veneer. The interior of the physical education building contains class A and B office and administrative space, an atrium, class rooms, a test kitchen, and a gymnasium. The interior of the applied sciences building contains class B office space, and laboratories for Vocational Arts including; electrical, welding, HVAC, audio visual communications, and plumbing. The interior of the central energy plant is unfinished and contains commercial boilers, chillers, and the associated process piping to support the HVAC loads imposed by the other two buildings, it is also designed to receive additional load for future buildings.
The physical education building and applied sciences building are both seeking LEED Silver Certification.
