Carter Elementary School

Knox County Schools

Knoxville, Tennessee

Selected through a competitive, developer-led team process, JAI worked closely with the developer, contractor and school board to create a model school that was delivered for more than $2 million less than the conventional design-bid-build method.

The state-of-the-art K-5 school accommodates 650 students; planned expansion can accommodate 800 students. The site design separated vehicular and pedestrian traffic and included sporting and play fields. Energy efficiency and long-term maintenance of materials became key elements in the overall design of the school.
