This project received the Energy Star award from the State of Kentucky in 2006 for being one of the most energy efficient new schools in the state.

The design of this 600 student, two story school is a direct response to a challenging, hilly site. The Gym, Cafeteria, and Media Center are located on the lower level allowing bus and service vehicles access from the back (lower level). Parent drop-off and visitor entry occurs conveniently from the front (upper level). A curved retaining wall along the front allows light to enter the lower level classrooms on the approach side.
