Bismarck Public School Career Academy, Bismarck, ND
The Bismarck Public Schools Career Academy, when completed, will be a crossroads for secondary, post-secondary and adult learning. The design of the building encapsulates a new movement in career education, which includes collaborative learning and an engagement with the regional business community. The building was designed to allow Bismarck Public Schools and Bismarck State College to have areas for learning & collaboration under one roof. The project began out of the R.L. Engebretson/Tvenge office in Bismarck with Programming, Schematic Design and into Design Development. The R.L. Engebretson Fargo office then acted as a work horse for the smaller Bismarck office, helping them complete the Design Development phase and Construction Documents. While the work was completed by the same company - it was truly an effort in collaboration to ensure the Bismarck team’s design and intent was carried throughout the Construction Documents.
