Over the past dozen years, Manassas Park’s schools have become the site of a dramatic makeover. Not only did the community support the replacement of every single square foot of every Pre-K-to-12 school and fundamentally reshape its instruction and curriculum – the process also transformed the core identity of the city itself. To date MPCS projects have received a total of 22 major design awards with its latest project Manassas Park Elementary School (LEED Gold certified) receiving a 2010 AIA Cote Award and a 2010 AIA CAE Award.
