Quest Academy West Campus

Hitchcock Design Group led the project team in the design and implementation of improvements to the west campus of Quest Academy. These improvements included the development of a multi-use athletic field and multi-use sports court for basketball, badminton and paddle tennis; and the ability for added programming opportunities during winter months. Additional improvements to the west campus involved the creation of an amphitheater with seating for 100 people that not only provides a space for education opportunities but also performances and story-telling. Flexible outdoor classrooms and growing gardens were added to compliment the curriculum and allow students the ability to have a fully integrated learning experience with nature.
