Allen County Board of Education

The Allen County Board requested a combination of a Central Office facility and a Central Storage and Receiving

facility. The resulting 19,000 s.f. facility has a main level for the office area which contains a central core for staff

work area with support staff offices around that core. Offices for program staff are located on the building

perimeter. The Board Meeting Room is located off the main lobby, keeping public access separate from the staff

areas. Central storage for the school district, record storage, and building mechanical systems are located in the

below-grade level which is served by a loading dock and grade-level access. HVAC system is served by

geothermal wells, and facility is setup to take advantage of all current technology systems. The school district

primary servers are all located here, and fiber connections to all district facilities is maintained.

Allen County Schools are located on one 156 acre campus in Scottsville, KY. Facilities on this site include the

Allen County Primary Center, Allen County Intermediate School, Allen County Middle School, Allen County High

School, Allen County Career and Technical Center, ACHS Fitness Facility, and the Allen County Board of

Education. These facilities are all served by geothermal heating and cooling. By using geothermal systems

throughout the school system the owner has lowered energy costs and reduced their carbon footprint.
