WHO WE ARE

Since 1996, DeAngelis Diamond has grown rapidly from a highly successful regional construction management company, to a nationally-known, well-respected, and innovative leader in the industry. Today, DeAngelis Diamond is an award-winning national construction firm with a highly diverse project portfolio. DeAngelis Diamond was named one of America’s fastest-growing companies by Inc. 5000. We have offices located in eight cities across the country and are licensed in 37 states with a presence in the Caribbean.

This project is an exciting addition to Babcock Ranch, America’s first solar-powered town located just northeast of Fort Myers. The innovative 39,000-square-foot charter high school is designed to inspire learning and creativity, with flexible and adaptable spaces that meet the evolving needs of students and educators.

The school features 24 spacious classrooms that are filled with natural light, creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for learning. Additionally, the high school includes academy support spaces and AICE labs, which offer advanced learning opportunities to students.

Administrative support spaces are also a key component of this project, providing a centralized hub for staff and faculty to manage the day-to-day operations of the school. To ensure seamless connectivity, the new high school is designed to connect to the current K-8 Neighborhood School via a covered walkway, creating a cohesive and integrated educational community.

The innovative features of this two-story tilt panel K-8 charter school promise to revolutionize the learning experience for students. In addition to its sturdy construction, featuring steel roof trusses and concrete slab with a single-ply membrane roof, the school consists of a modern interior, complete with a kitchen/cafeteria, spacious classrooms, and a collaborative room that encourages teamwork and creativity. What sets this school apart, however, are its cutting-edge facilities, including two larger classrooms that serve as a state-of-the-art science lab. Here, students will have the opportunity to build their own Trebuchets and limited robotics, igniting their curiosity and passion for STEM subjects.

This two-story education center is designed specifically for K-6 charter school students. With a focus on creating an engaging and immersive learning experience, the facility boasts state-of-the-art technologies, including interactive smart boards, touchscreen monitors, and computer labs. The modern-day amenities are carefully integrated into the facility’s design, allowing for seamless and efficient use by both students and staff. The education center’s two-story design maximizes space, providing ample room for learning and collaboration.

DeAngelis Diamond worked closely with Franklin Christian Academy and the design team to ensure that our construction work caused minimal disruption to the school traffic, staff, parents, and children. We initiated cost-cutting exercises and engaged in working sessions with the entire design team to fulfill the owner’s requirements for budget, schedule, and quality.

The new building offers a range of facilities, including a football field, basketball court, and state-of-the-art classrooms designed to create an engaging and immersive learning experience. Moreover, the second-floor mezzanine provides additional space for students to study and interact, further enhancing the learning environment. The design and construction of this project demonstrate our commitment to delivering superior quality results that align with the needs and expectations of our clients.
