Their new school campus, opened in January 1999, features two Monolithic Domes, connected by a corridor.
Besides providing access to both domes, the much traveled corridor works as a display area for student art.
An attractive foyer greets the 175 students, 8 staff members and visitors to Heber-Overgaard.
First floor of the two-story, 160’ diameter Monolithic Dome houses the Preschool, Special Education, other classrooms, media center, offices, Nurse’s Station and staff lounge.
It provides nutritional and health care information for the students and their parents.
Its soft overhead lighting creates a pleasant atmosphere.
Each room, including the library, has an individual heating/cooling unit along the external corridor. A central system heats and cools the internal section.
Superintendent Ron Squire said, “The cost for our two-dome facility averaged out to $68 per square foot. More importantly, we got the quality and features we wanted.”
Heber-Overgaard was Architect Marston Richards’ first Monolithic Dome project. He was pleased with the finished product.
During the Rodeo-Chediski fire in 2002, the Red Cross established a disaster-relief distribution and processing center at the school.
