Green County Board of Education Central Office

The Central Office project was developed to house nine (9) professional and support staff, as well as meeting

area for the School Board. While the space is occupied much of the time by a small population, one of the

challenges for design was the necessity to economically serve a large group during Board meetings.

The initial program definition of 5,000 s.f. was developed in conjunction with Board staff, and a budget of

$750,000 was set for construction and site development. Materials were defined as basic, without frills. Slab-on-

grade with metal studs, gypboard, acoustical ceilings, and metal roof (the Owner’s special request) with the most

effective use of the budget and the public funds. HVAC systems are rooftop units, ducted to provide flexibility.

Offices are located on the perimeter, with support spaces in the middle. The Board Room is located to permit the

building work area to be separately secured during public meetings.
