Peoria Public Schools District 150 Peoria High School Renovation and Expansion

Farnsworth Group has completed a comprehensive renovation and expansion of Peoria’s historic Central High School — one of the oldest K-12 schools in the State of Illinois.

This project was completed for both Peoria Public Schools District 150 and the Public Building Commission of Peoria. A central feature of this significant facility upgrade is a new two-story science wing that encompasses:

• Six science classrooms ranging in size from 1,200 to 1,400 SF each.
• Three conventional lecture classrooms, each with a full complement of smart technology.
• An all-new energy-efficient and flexible greenhouse.
• New restrooms, storage rooms, and other support spaces.
• A two-story linear atrium to serve as a new main entrance for the entire school; for both daytime use with the student population and nighttime use with the surrounding Community.
