William R. Peck Middle School Groundbreaking

Members of the Fontaine team were honored to attend Friday's Groundbreaking Ceremony for Holyoke Public Schools new middle school, a project for which we were selected to serve as the General Contractor.

Approved in June 2023, the 550-student middle school represents a critical step in Holyoke's educational evolution, replacing the currently outdated and energy-inefficient Peck Middle School. The design of the new school draws inspiration from our successful project at Goodnow Brothers Elementary School in Marlborough, a testament to our expertise in educational infrastructure and leadership in the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA)'s Model School Program.

We are honored to be entrusted with this project and look forward to delivering a state-of-the-art school to the Holyoke community in the second half of 2025!

With construction taking place during the academic year, our team will work closely with the school to ensure minimal disruption to students, faculty, and campus life.

We’re honored to work with Salisbury School on this exciting endeavor and look forward to strengthening our connection through this project and beyond. Together, we’re excited to help redefine private school education across New England by creating spaces that inspire learning and foster creativity for years to come.

This tradition marks the placement of the final steel beam, symbolizing a major milestone in the construction process. When finished, the Hub will serve as the heart of the only publicly accredited School of Public Health in New England—providing a unified space where students can collaborate, access advising and support services, and utilize state-of-the-art classrooms and seminar spaces.
