The scope of this $12.3M project is for building a new ground-up, 56,464 SF, three-story charter high school on the Paul Sandoval campus. This build is on a very busy corner at Central Park and 56th, surrounded by buildings, creating a tight staging area. The building will be mostly classrooms. 

MYC provided CM/GC services for Adams 12 Five Star Schools after a competitive interview process. The project was phased into two summers and is for a 279,128 SF, two-story building in Thornton. The renovations and upgrades throughout the facility include general renovations to ceilings, walls, floors, windows, common areas, and classrooms. MYC repaired building floor structures and added exhaust fans in the crawlspace. We replaced two existing water-cooled chillers with two air-cooled chillers and three associated pumps to upgrade HVAC systems for efficiency and temperature control for improved comfort. MYC also relocating electrical control panels from the irrigation pit to the ground level enclosure for safety and upgraded the emergency response and security camera systems. 

Opportunities Center is a unique mixed-use facility for Douglas County School District. The renovation was designed for the combined needs of three different user groups. Eagle Academy, an alternate high school program, offers students a different education path including smaller class sizes and personalized learning. Eagle Academy is an evening program because many students work during the day. Bridge is a transitional program for 18 to 21-year-olds offering living skills, community access skills, and pre-employment skills to students requiring specialized instruction, services, and facilities. The third user group is Early Childhood Center, a team of specialists offering developmental assessments for children from birth to five years old.

Scope of work included a new CM/GC three-story addition to the existing boy’s dorm/cafeteria as well as a new Hankin’s Hall tower addition at this occupied facility. MYC recognized and assisted the Owner in procuring third party inspections required by building code. We provided civil design and layout that was not provided by the design team. We also worked directly with the egress of the boy’s dormitory, school cafeteria, and school classrooms throughout the school year while ensuring safe passage of students through the work area. 

MYC renovated many different aspects of this elementary school including new ceilings, window replacement, mechanical work, bigger branch piping, new fire alarm systems, an emergency generator, new intercom systems, new doors, and replacing metal wall panels on the exterior of the building. MYC created early education classrooms and new ADA restrooms as well as tore down the old playground and built an early childhood education (ECE) playground. Other site work included removing and replacing the parking lot, adding a bus drop off zone, and design-building the irrigation systems. This was all accomplished on a very tight nine-week schedule. MYC self-performed the concrete portions of this project.

MYC performed upgrades to the science rooms, added receptacles in the hallways, made fire life safety code upgrades, renovated the black box theatre room, and added new boilers. The project was phased and was partially occupied. The multiple bid packages included code and ADA upgrades, art room kiln exhaust, science room safety upgrades, and the black box theater. MYC also renovated the Youth Career Connect building.
