Washington School Groundbreaking Ceremony

We were honored to join Jefferson Parish Schools, community leaders, and project partners for the groundbreaking ceremony of the new Washington School campus in Jefferson Parish. This state-of-the-art Pre-K through 8th-grade school will be built on the current Bunche Elementary site and represents a $48 million investment in modern educational facilities by the Jefferson Parish School Board.

Design Engineering, Inc. is proud to be part of this transformative project through our work on the Bunche Elementary Airline Crossing. This new bridge will connect the campus directly to Airline Highway, helping to ease traffic flow and provide safer, more convenient access for students, families, and the surrounding community.

The new Washington School will feature innovative “pod” designs aimed at fostering collaborative learning and enhancing campus safety. We are excited to work alongside Grace Hebert Curtis Architects and Jefferson Parish Schools to help bring this vision to life.
