Scope Of Work

Originally constructed in the 1980s, Veterans Park Academy of the Arts (formerly Lehigh Acres Middle School) underwent a full renovation in less than 7 months—open in time for the next school year.

The first phase of many projects to occur at the Veterans Park Academy of the Arts campus was a complete renovation of the existing Lehigh Acres Middle School building.  At the time of the original construction, a fire sprinkler system was not provided.  During the renovation, the building was retrofitted with a fire suppression system, a fire pump room, and enhanced underground utilities.  The exterior upgrades included a refreshed student courtyard, re-skinning of the exterior metal panel system, as well as new paving, grading, and sidewalks.  The interior upgrades focused on life safety, single-point entry, refinishing or replacement of all surfaces, and a remodel of partition and fixture layouts that emphasized updated technologies and arrangements.
