Banner Christian School

Banner Christian School, a private K-12 program, appointed Balzer and Associates, Inc. in the Fall of 2012 to master plan 126 acres of newly purchased land in Chesterfield County. Consisting of four phases, the overall site design included football, soccer, baseball and softball fields, as well as tennis courts, a full size running track, a field house and parking for up to 1,100 vehicles.

The school design consisted of four construction phases as well, programmed to accommodate the school’s rapidly growing enrollment. Centered around a grand two-story commons and media center, the design solution consisted of 52 classrooms, a main and auxiliary gymnasium, a cafeteria with outdoor seating, physical education and sports locker rooms, staff and administration offices, as well as spaces dedicated to art, science, technology, music and theater functions. The plan also included a 1,000 seat auditorium and circular entry tower.
