Cyprus High School Magna, UT
Design of the new Skyline High School and Cyprus High School is redefining the district's approach to high school education. Early visioning and planning sessions involved District administrators, as well as leaders and faculty from both schools, to build a common vision.

The design allows Granite to continue its departmental approach to high school education, but with an emphasis on next generation learning. In a break from the district's traditional double-loaded corridor schools, the design creates flexible, open space at the center of each learning community. The design increases the visibility of the school's media program by positioning it next to a study café. directly on the public square of the building. Partner Firm: Naylor Wentworth Lund Architects

Carmel High School's new natatorium, in concert with renovations to the existing pool, will provide a complex to better serve students, the community and top-tier competition. This expansion more than doubles the available water surface for swimming programs that continue to grow in the Carmel community. The new expanded entrance is truly the second main entrance to the high school, welcoming students arriving from the trail and parking lots to the north as well as athletes and spectators for events in the natatorium, fieldhouse and other athletic facilities.

A fully recessed gutter, a flat pool floor with 8-foot depth exceeding FINA and USA Swimming standards for entry safety, 25-meter width and cooler water temperature ensures this will be one of the fastest pools in the nation.
