Construction: Completion in 2020
Building Project Summary:
In early 2017, the Brownsburg Community School Corporation began construction on a massive renovation project to be completed Fall of 2020.
The core of the Brownsburg High School building has been relatively unchanged since it opened in 1971. With 13 additions over the last 46 years, the infrastructure of the building was in dire need of an upgrade. These upgrades will accommodate technology needs for teachers and students that weren’t in place in 1971 and maintain a comfortable learning environment with updates to the aging HVAC system Additionally, the expanded infrastructure will accommodate an increase in student enrollment from 2500 to 4500 students.
To accomplish this, a portion of the existing building was demolished to make way for a new education wing, kitchen and dining area. The central heating and cooling plants as well as the main electrical distribution system are being relocated and upgraded. The project widens hallways, adds 23% more classroom spaces and expands auditorium seating.
The project is complex because of coordinating the detailed construction schedule, along with the balanced school schedule which only provides for 8 weeks off during the summer, for all major outages and change overs.
