New school serves as K-12 prototype for sustainability
The School District of Osceola County in Florida embarked on a mission to build an outstanding educational facility that offers top-of-the-line amenities to students and a 21st-century school design. The district partnered with Gilbane to provide Construction Management Services for their new K-8 school prototype, designed by Zyscovich, Inc.
