Add a Steel Building to a School

Whether you are opening a Montessori school or need additional rooms for a school district, consider adding a steel building to your school property. Faster to build, steel pole buildings proved to be extremely durable and come with excellent warranties. Pole building design fills the need for low rise buildings of one, two, or three levels.

The modern version pole buildings outperform structures from the 20th century. They are engineered with complete building systems to provide the superb energy efficiency required with today’s tight budgets. In addition, post-frame construction gives schools the necessary flexibility to reconfigure floor plans over time. And metal buildings resist embers blowing in the wind of fire seasons along the front range.

Large School Buildings

If you need supplementary classrooms on two levels, consider our two-story steel building design. Walls of windows and walk-in doors form the basis for a simple classroom layout. Possibilities are endless. And the building’s flexibility will allow you to change classrooms and offices over time.

Athletic buildings incorporate larger doors, overhead and pivot doors, to create seamless indoor/outdoor activity spaces. Basketball, volleyball, kickball, and other games. Schools have also incorporated steel buildings into stadiums and fields. They make for excellent storage facilities and locker rooms for the visiting teams. Say you need more space to accommodate health classes or recreation. Add a smaller gym or an outdoor pavilion.

Montessori School House

If you are interested in the concept of a Montessori Children’s House, take a few minutes to look at the residential buildings in the “See” section on the home page at LesterBuildings.com. Any of these plans would nestle comfortably into the corner of an agricultural property in Douglas County or Elbert County. Montessori encouraged agrarian activities – grinding corn, feeding birds, growing edibles. She would have encouraged the keeping of animals such as chickens, rabbits, and many horses.

A Children’s House is equipped with the all-important kitchen where children learn cooking and serving, also. The residential house plans also feature garages where hands-on activities such as engineering and woodshop class can happen. Even a small school of one or two classrooms would benefit from our steel buildings with low roof pitch, wainscot, dormers, etc.
