NAWA Academy

OPA is developing a Campus Master Plan and dormitory design for NAWA Academy, a 550 acre campus in Northern California. Just north of French Gulch, the stunningly beautiful site is composed of two meadows embraced by a ring of steep forested hills with Clear Creek running through the center of the site.

Components of the Master Plan include a student center, cafeteria, classrooms and labs, housing for 150 students, an arts center, an athletic and gymnasium complex, an equestrian area, an outdoor assembly space, and an administrative.center.

Initial components of the Master Plan include a NAWA community survey; a NAWA campus assessment; a case study of Islandwood, an environmental school in the Pacific Northwest, and OPA's preliminary recommendations for developing NAWA's future campus. Links to those components are at the top of this page.

Architectural realization of the complete Master Pan is expected to occur over the next ten years.

Construction of the new dormitories will begin in Spring of 2009.
