CSDG worked with the project architect to develop a Master Plan for the Diocese of Nashville’s new campus in Nolensville. CSDG was then engaged for detailed design of Phase One of the project, St. Michael Academy. This state-of-the-art, 100,000 SF, Pre-K through 8th grade school, is planned to open August 2024, with capacity for 500 students. The main building will house administrative offices and shared student spaces including an auditorium/gymnasium, cafeteria, library, and chapel. One wing of the building will be classroom space for Pre-K through fifth grade, and the other wing is designed for middle school students, 6th-8th grade.
Unique outdoor classroom spaces will extend the learning environment and allow for enhanced STEM opportunities beyond the interior spaces. The back patio is designed with natural materials to blend the architecture with the surrounding landscape; boardwalk connectors around the pond will unite the campus buildings. The project is currently under construction. Future phases of the project will include a new parish and construction of a new high school.
