This new 840-student elementary school is the first building on Appoquinimink School District’s new Summit Campus in Middletown, Delaware. The 85,290 square foot school includes 38 classrooms, a STEM classroom, library and media center, multiple collaborative instructional spaces and a combination gym/cafeteria and performance space. The building is organized in classroom pods that are themed around various modes of transportation, on land, water, and air, each of which reflects a feature of the site which is bounded by train tracks, an airport, highways, and the C&D Canal. Serving grades 1-5, this elementary school is the anchor for the future development of our design for the Summit Campus Masterplan.
