The Sandy Hook School received a special “Power of Community Award” from CMAA. This award, a first from the CMAA, recognized the powerful impact the new school, and the design and construction professionals who helped make it possible, had on the Newtown community. STV/DPM provided owner’s project management (OPM) services for the $50 million, 87,000sf school, which opened in 2016.

STV/DPM saw to it that the construction program was managed with the utmost care and sensitivity, in the wake of the tragedy that occurred in 2012. In addition to coordinating the work of the architect, Svigals + Partners of New Haven, Conn. , and the construction manager, Consigli Construction Co., Inc., of Milford, Mass., STV’s project team worked closely with the building committee, school district staff and other key stakeholders in the Newtown community.
