The 147,000-square-foot renovation of Joseph M. Gallagher PK-8 reimagines an existing educational facility with a strong focus on sustainability and innovation. Designed to meet the evolving needs of the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, this project integrates advanced strategies to create a healthier, more efficient, and inspiring space for students, staff, and the community.

Sustainability is central to the renovation, featuring:

• Energy Efficiency: High-performance HVAC systems, energy-efficient windows, and optimized insulation reduce energy use and enhance comfort.
• Natural Lighting: Maximized daylight fosters a vibrant learning environment and reduces energy consumption.
• Acoustic Design: Enhanced sound quality improves the learning experience.
• Water Conservation: Efficient fixtures lower environmental impact and operational costs.

Targeting LEED certification, this project reflects a commitment to environmental responsibility and long-term value. Scheduled for completion in January 2025, the revitalized Joseph M. Gallagher PK-8 will set a new standard for sustainable, student-centered design in Cleveland and beyond.
