Harvest Hills Elementary School

Gretna, Nebraska’s seventh elementary school was designed to meet the growing city’s needs, with an up-to-date structure of masonry and metal, current digital technology access, and the most modern amenities. A complete computer lab and media center were part of the building design from the earliest stages. This single-story school is designed for students from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade, and includes a full gymnasium, platform stage, complete kitchen and commons area, and storm shelter.

As a new structure in a new community development, this school’s construction was part of a complete infrastructure package. The design was included in community-wide layout for roads and public utilities. Sampson participated in design meetings with the City, County, Developer, and utility providers to coordinate all connections, to bring all needed resources into a previously undeveloped area. The finished school has enough classrooms, administrative resources, and a nurse and a counselor, to serve 350 students and their families.
