HMFH Architects

Thompson
Middle School

In a solution embraced by the city, HMFH designed a middle school that remains downtown, and therefore, visible and accessible, to the community. The oldest original building was restored and incorporated into a new, three-story, 112,000 sf school for 720 students. Designed to enhance and support a team-centered middle school curriculum, the new facility accommodates three 80-student clusters per grade.

The preserved Townsend building houses administration on the ground floor and, above it, is a double-height library open to expose the architecturally interesting mansard roof.
