About the Project

In conjunction with architect FEH Design, Kraemer Brothers started Royall School District’s referendum planning in 2020. After passing a successful referendum, we fast-tracked this project to have utilities installed and the site prepped for construction. Royall focused on three goals in the facility’s design: create a safe and secure learning environment for students and staff; provide space to support physical education and athletic programs; and improve instruction space for agriculture education. We exceeded all three goals with this design. Connecting the elementary school to the middle/high school, a new centralized secure entrance was created keeping all district offices and the school nurse in one building. The new 2-station field house accommodates over 900 people and is adorned with conference banners, championship accolades, and acoustical panels. The new dedicated agriculture education room includes storage space and is located near other spaces that support this discipline. To add a modern design to the facility, a curved canopy welcomes visitors to the school, while translucent clerestory windows provide lighting into the gymnasium. Kraemer Brothers managed the aggressive 14-month schedule and turned over the school a month in advance. Go Panthers!
