KISSIMMEE, FL — Skanska has signed a $47 million contract with the School District of Osceola County to reconstruct Reedy Creek Elementary School in Kissimmee, Florida. This multi-phased K-5 project will include demolishing portions of the existing school campus, constructing a new 96,000-square-foot academic center, renovating the remaining buildings, and completing a full site redevelopment including the relocation of the sports and playing fields within the school property.
Once completed, the school will accommodate nearly 950 students from Pre-K to 5th grade and enhance both academic and recreational environments.
"The reconstruction of Reedy Creek Elementary School allows us to partner with the School District of Osceola County to continue to raise the bar on sustainable education construction as we build a more sustainable and efficient school campus that will foster a positive learning environment for nearly 1,000 students," said Daniel Abou-Jaoude, Vice President at Skanska. "We take great pride in constructing impactful facilities that will help shape the future of the many students who attend, and we are excited to return to the school district to construct this important project."
Phase one consists of constructing the new academic space and reconstructing the existing building. Phase two encompasses the demolition of the current academic building and the relocation of the play fields and associated outdoor structures.
"The Osceola County School District is pleased to collaborate with Skanska on the comprehensive rebuild of Reedy Creek Elementary," said Dr. Mark Shanoff, Superintendent of the Osceola School District. "This extensive project, funded by Osceola County taxpayers through the ½ cent sales tax initiative, promises to reduce operating costs with its high-performance design. Additionally, the project will incorporate modern furniture, fixtures, and equipment to align with contemporary teaching methodologies."
