Heatherwood Middle School

This was the first multi-story school built in the Everett School District in several years. It consists of over 120,000 square feet of space and can accommodate over 900 students. The brick facades, private offices for the teachers, single-loaded corridors and a central hub within the school contributes to the stimulating atmosphere of the school. External circulation for cars and buses was designed to be completely separate from student areas for increased safety.

"I recall numerous meetings with informal and formal neighborhood associations, government entities (Heatherwood involved both Snohomish County and the City of Mill Creek), School District personnel and others. Frequently Andy was called on to present proposals, respond to concerns, and seek solutions to situations that sometimes were quite volatile. [They were] always professional, calm, cordial, considerate of everyone's concerns, and as accommodating as possible.... Andy was instrumental in helping the school district work through those issues that were essential prerequisites to design and construction."
