PINCKNEYVILLE, ILL. — Pinckney Community High School District #101 has selected Swansea, Ill.-based Holland Construction Services to construct a new 54,000-square-foot school in Pinckneyville. Slated to break ground in spring 2011, the new structure will replace two existing buildings, which currently house 470 students in pre-kindergarten and grades nine through 12. The project will renovate the existing gymnasium that will feature a newly installed heating, ventilation and air conditioning system. Additionally, the new structure will house 500 students and offer science rooms with a lab and preparation room, art classrooms with a darkroom, a home economics and food lab, computer and tech labs, a pre-kindergarten classroom, a media center, a girl’s gymnasium and locker rooms, restrooms, general classrooms, special education classrooms with office and restroom spaces, and administrative and guidance offices for the high school and district. The project will also feature a nurse’s office, a teacher’s workroom, storage and mechanical rooms, an elevator and a cafeteria, a kitchen and a cafetorium with a moveable stage. Steeleville, Ill.-based Mevert Professional Associates is providing architectural services for the project.
