The school provides three kindergarten rooms, 18 flexible classrooms, two special education rooms, art and music, library/media center, nurse’s office, administration, guidance and faculty space. An all-purpose room doubles as both a gym and kitchen/cafeteria with stage.

Ferguson Township Elementary: Renovations and additions to replace an aging school, with much of the original building ultimately being demolished.

Scope included renovation of a 1930’s wing and replacement of the existing gym, classrooms, kitchen, art and music rooms, and administrative offices.

Gray’s Woods Elementary: Addition housing four classrooms and support space. Constructed of masonry walls with a brick façade. MEP systems were tied into the school’s existing infrastructure. Additional parking and site development on the 15-acre lot were also provided.

The Mount Nittany and Ferguson Township earned LEED Silver and Platinum certification, respectively. Significant green features include: energy efficient utilities and control systems, including geothermal heating and cooling systems; high performance glazing and sunshades; rainwater management; use of certified wood, regional materials, and materials with recycled content; and construction waste management.
