In addition to improving gameday amenities and the fan experience, the Greater Zion Stadium West Side Expansion at Utah Tech University greatly enhanced the student-athlete experience.

By creating comfortable environments with advanced training resources in an optimal layout, the new spaces help ensure that student-athletes thrive both on and off the field.

Timpview High School, originally built in the late 1970s, is undergoing a major transformation on the bench in Provo, Utah. Prompted by safety concerns from the community and district due to differential settlement in wet collapsible soils, our design effort focuses on eliminating the most problematic areas, structurally retrofitting others, and rebuilding essential facilities. The extensive renovation includes new multi-level wings to enhance classrooms and labs, as well as dedicated spaces for the arts, athletics, special education, and more. This pivotal project is crucial for the community, and we’re proud of the progress made so far. A big thank you to the dedicated members of the design and construction team for their unwavering commitment to excellence. #ForStudentsToThrive #EducationDesign #SchoolRenovation #VCBOArchitects

We're thrilled to see our K–12 team members, Jeanne Jackson and Brian Peterson, featured in Davis School District's latest "Behind the Build" video! In this video, they give a glimpse into the complex process of transforming initial design ideas for educational facilities into stunning, functional realities. By constantly modifying and fine-tuning different elements, every detail is meticulously considered to ensure student learning is always at the forefront of the design. "Designing schools is one of the best ways that we can help society to be a stronger and better place," Brian shared. "It's very rewarding to design a space and have that come to life — not only in a virtual way but an actual building that benefits the community. These kids can come into the building and thrive and discover who they are." Go behind the scenes: https://lnkd.in/g2dyqaiw #EducationDesign #BehindTheDesign #UtahArchitecture #VCBOArchitects

The new Juniper Elementary School has officially opened its doors! As the first multi-use school in the Jordan School District, Juniper is designed to serve both current and future students. Initially accommodating 4th, 5th, and 6th graders, the school is equipped with the flexibility to evolve into a middle school as the region grows, with future facility expansions planned to seamlessly integrate into the existing architecture. The building’s angular surfaces and 3D-patterned panels create dynamic, engaging interiors while undulating facades and large glass panels maximize natural light. Featuring 32 state-of-the-art classrooms, a tech atrium, and versatile spaces, Juniper is designed to meet the needs of today's upper elementary students while adapting to the community's future growth — blending function with forward-thinking design. 📽: https://lnkd.in/gXnvTAEa #EducationDesign #FlexibleDesign #LearningEnvironments #VCBOArchitects

The University of Utah Health Clinic at West High School was an innovative collaboration between our K–12 and healthcare teams. This state-of-the-art facility, housed in a transformed, unused locker room in West High, offers a modern, welcoming design with a dedicated lobby, four exam rooms, a lab, and support spaces. This partnership between the Salt Lake City School District, Salt Lake Education Foundation, University of Utah Health, and West High School represents a community-based approach to prioritizing student well-being. By providing accessible healthcare on campus, the clinic addresses critical barriers like transportation, cost, and time, ensuring that vulnerable students receive the physical and mental health care they need to thrive academically and personally. As the first of its kind in Utah, this clinic sets a new standard for school-based healthcare, with the hope that its success will inspire similar school-based health initiatives across the state. #ForStudentsToThrive #EducationDesign #HealthcareDesign #StudentWellness #VCBOArchitects
