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the 550-student middle school represents a critical step in Holyoke's educational evolution, replacing the currently outdated and energy-inefficient Peck Middle School.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!
