# VIDEO: Does Your School District Need More Space, Greater Efficiency, or Facility Repairs? We Can Help!

By Brent Dammann, AIA, VP - Architect October 31, 2017

**Is your district’s enrollment growing?** We support referendum campaigns and will lead the way on planning and design for new facilities, remodels, and additions. [**View project examples**](https://widseth.com/portfolio/education/). 

**Is your district’s enrollment decreasing?** We provide facility assessments that define future requirements and identify alternatives for optimal use or reuse of building assets, as well as mothballing existing buildings.

**Does your district have maintenance and operations issues?** We help prioritize repair and replacement needs to ensure that limited financial resources are dedicated to the most pressing problems.

**Does your district wish to improve your energy consumption?** We perform energy audits and plan efficient, sustainable facilities that create appropriate and comfortable learning environments that are affordable to operate.

 

 

We can help you with the following:

- Programming & Master Planning
- Facility Assessment & Management
- Budget Forecasting
- Deferred Maintenance Planning
- New Construction
- Additions & Remodeling
- ADA/Accessibility Projects
- Lighting Upgrades
- Fire-Code Upgrades
- Commissioning & Retro-commissioning
- Re-Roofing
- Site Improvements
- Security Enhancements
- Bleacher Inspections

The Pillager School District conducted a successful referendum to expand its existing K–12 school building to accommodate increasing enrollment. The $11 million, 63,700 sq.ft. addition was designed by Widseth. [**Click here to see a gallery of  Widseth’s educational projects**](https://widseth.com/portfolio/education/) and learn more about the project.
