This project involved a substantial addition to this small elementary school on Cape Cod. New construction included six classrooms, a new cafeteria, kitchen and gymnasium. A portion of the original wooden schoolhouse, built in 1937, was saved and incorporated in the new building. Porches, trellises, gabled roofs, cupolas and carefully detailed woodwork reflect the surrounding architectural tradition, but they also provide a residential scale, which is familiar and welcoming to its youngest users. A ramp serves as a major unifying element connecting classrooms on the upper level with the lower, entry-level community and shared facilities. The ramp's landing/turning point creates a turret on the exterior of the building, marking the front entry.

Renovations and additions respond to the significant changes in special education, computer technology, and instructional media, and incorporate community recreational and meeting spaces. The new facilities include four regular classrooms; kindergarten, preschool, and special education classrooms; art and music rooms; facilities for school administration, a new gym/town meeting hall; a cafeteria; and a community room. Two existing classrooms were refurbished, and the new library/media center and computer lab occupy the renovated, original gym.

The scope of work included a study of the feasibility of additions to the existing buildings versus construction of a new school on a new site.
