A Facility Built for the Community
Mooresville Schools has a long-standing tradition of excellence in education, athletics, and community engagement. As the district continued to grow, leadership recognized the need for expanded athletic and fitness facilities and improved cafeteria and gathering spaces to better serve students and the community.
Mooresville Schools sought to create a space that would support student success both inside and outside the classroom. The Pioneer Pavilion was designed to provide high-quality fitness and athletic experience while also improving the overall campus environment. Through a design-build approach, the district ensured the project met its goals.
