LADSON ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Ladson, SC

In collaboration with CGD|PBK, the new 112,000-square-foot Ladson Elementary School is representative of our successful long-term relationship with Charleston County School District. Completed in 2026, the replacement school is designed to accommodate 900 students with the ability to expand to a 1,200-student capacity. 


Design goals for the school include:

  • Expand size and capacity to accommodate growth

  • Create a welcoming space for the Ladson community students and families 

  • Establish a separate Early Learning Center 

  • Eliminate portable classrooms 

  • Provide technology upgrades 

  • Improve air quality 

  • Provide adequate spaces for a Media Center, Cafeteria, and Multi-Purpose Rooms

  • Increase length of car stacking lane 

  • Increase space for bus stacking  

  • Increase visitor parking at front entry 

  • Increase parking for day-to-day and special events 

  • Provide more green space for play areas and improve playgrounds 

  • Design the elementary school to have an independent identity from the Early Learning Center 

  • Recognize the 100+ year history of Ladson School
