Zionsville High School Modernization

Zionsville, IN

For systems renovations to Northview High School, Fanning Howey targeted the most antiquated areas of the school and repurposed them to deliver maximum value for the client’s budget.

LED lighting, low-flow water fixtures and energy recovery units were used for efficiency. VAV units were installed in classrooms, and VRF units in administration areas to allow these spaces to be selfcontained and used year round. Improved learning environments and energy savings have led to a healthy and efficient school building.

RELEVANT INFORMATION

• Duct silencers were used to improve acoustics and provide a distraction-free learning environment.

Thanks to a smarter approach to renovations and additions, students at Zionsville High School will have a safer and more collaborative learning environment.

The modernization is adding 35 classrooms, a new grand dining commons, an academic/research commons, and a new administration suite to Zionsville High School. The grand commons will give the building a new heart, while renovations will turn the former cafeteria/kitchen into much-needed classrooms. The strategic placement of new construction will allow the school to separate visitor and bus traffic, reduce overcrowding in hallways and consolidate food service from three locations to one.

ABOVE | A strategic addition is creating a new dining/collaboration space at the center of Zionsville High School.
