CPHS Freshman Academy and STEM Center receives Excellence in Construction Award

KKT Architects and L.D. Kerns Contractors were recently awarded the Excellence in Construction Eagle Award by the Associated Builders and Contractors of Oklahoma for their work on the new Freshman Academy and STEM Center at Charles Page High School in Sand Springs. The project was entered in the Institutional $10-25 million category.

The 58,000 square foot addition to the high school unified the district’s high school students for the first time in decades, replacing the old Central Ninth Grade Center in downtown. The project included 24 classrooms (including four STEM classrooms), a cafeteria/commons space, administrative offices, and a grand lobby and entrance.

KKT previously shared an Eagle Award with Flintco LLC for their $1.3 million renovation at the Ed Dubie Field House in 2011, and won an AIA Oklahoma Award of Excellence Merit Award for their work at Charles Page Library in 2003.
