Ziegler Cooper Architects was commissioned by St. John's School to develop a master plan for its North and South Campuses, providing a long-term vision to guide facility planning and support the school's commitment to excellence in learning. Phase I included comprehensive programming for the Upper and Lower Schools and a space utilization study that identified the need to restore and renovate several aging facilities to meet current code, life safety, and accessibility requirements.
The master plan explored opportunities for new academic facilities, enhanced classroom space, and improved campus organization through thoughtful landscape design and site planning. The plan ultimately led to the restoration of the original Farish Hall classroom building, renovation of 68,000 square feet of existing academic space, construction of two new classroom buildings totaling 75,000 square feet, and campus-wide technology and mechanical system upgrades that further modernized the Upper School and supported long-term growth.
