ISG performed wide-ranging facilities assessments for the Fort Dodge Community School District, laying the groundwork for funding of a new elementary school, gymnasium, and athletic field, as well as other mechanical, electrical, design, and security upgrades. Based on the assessment to condemn an elementary school building, we created a priority list with recommendations based on building physical needs, student safety, and community feedback.
The new elementary school included a classroom pod format with flexible teaching areas for collaboration and group workspaces, maker spaces in the library, and a new music room.
I’m over-awed at the beauty and the planning that went into it. Everything about it is so clean and fresh and new and state-of-the-art, and it’s for the kids. The kids will love it. And so will the staff. . . I loved the old building, I didn’t think I could love anything more.
