The Academy of the Holy Names, founded in 1881, is a Catholic independent co-educational elementary school and a college preparatory school for young women. Cooper Johnson Smith was enlisted to develop a Campus Master Plan and provide architectural services for its implementation. The resulting three-phase Master Plan defines the physical changes needed to meet the school’s long-term goals, establishing a campus-wide vision of how those goals will be realized in the twenty-first century.

Cooper Johnson Smith Architects & Town Planners is dedicated to the creation of environments that are both innovative and timeless, and that provide a meaningful sense of place. Our work endeavors to reunite architecture with the art of town-making. Our vision for individual buildings draws upon our principles of urbanism, including our responsibility to be stewards of the natural environment. We strive to create built environments that nurture the human spirit and provide the opportunity for a rich and meaningful civic life.

The second phase of the Master Plan consists of the renovation of the existing 85,000 SF Bayshore Building. The original 1920’s building and 1950’s additions will now provide all of the general classrooms and administrative offices for the entire school. In addition, updated and expanded science labs are renovated to provide students with the very best facilities for learning.
