Thompson School District Early Childhood Education Center at Stansberry


This early childhood center reflects a community’s shared commitment to its youngest learners.
Dedicated to supporting the whole child, Thompson School District designed its new early childhood education center to give students the best possible start – academically, socially and emotionally. Housed within a renovated existing school building, the project was shaped by input from teachers, administrators, families and local businesses through surveys, working groups and public meetings.
Wallace Design Collective provided structural and civil engineering services for the renovation, which included a new entry canopy, roof evaluations for mechanical upgrades and redesigned site features such as parking, utilities, sidewalks and play areas. The result is a welcoming, purpose-built environment that reflects the community’s shared vision for early learning.
