Wayland-Cohocton Central School District

► High School Auditorium Reconstruction & Expansion

Wayland-Cohocton CSD needed a solution to accomodate "standing-room only" crowds that had its high school auditorium bursting at the seams during student concerts and performances. The reconstruction and expansion of the existing auditorium resulted in a new, modernized Performing Arts Center.

Determined to find a way to celebrate the new space while COVID restrictions were still in place, the District created a one-of-a-kind celebration video to share with the entire Wayland-Cohocton community.

In addition to the Performing Arts Center, the project's scope included various asset preservation, accessibility, health, and safety improvements that were identified and prioritized through the Building Condition Survey process that is required of all districts by the New York State Education Department.
