A partnership built on progress...
A quiet but powerful transformation has been unfolding across the Monmouth-Roseville Community Unit School District #238. What began as a professional collaboration between the district and Graham & Hyde Architects has evolved into a lasting partnership built on trust, vision, and over 140 successful projects — each one focused on a single goal: giving students and staff the best possible environment to learn and thrive.
From the very beginning, Graham & Hyde brought more than blueprints to the table — they brought a commitment to the long-term success of the district. Whether it was helping create thoughtful long-range facility plans or navigating the intricate details of disabilities design compliance, their work was never just about construction — it was about community.
The results speak volumes. Students now take to the field on a brand-new high school soccer field, run on a repaired track, and learn in buildings with modern HVAC systems that make every season comfortable and energy-efficient. Smart energy studies led to cost-saving lighting improvements, and secure entry systems have made schools safer for everyone inside.
Across six district buildings, the impact of these renovations is visible at every turn:
-
Renovated classrooms and administration offices that inspire both teaching and learning
-
Restrooms, flooring, doors, and windows redesigned for comfort and accessibility
-
New playgrounds and a greenhouse, connecting students to nature, play, and hands-on learning
-
Shop and lab upgrades that support modern, career-ready education
-
Restored masonry, replaced roofs, and improved driveways and parking lots, all reflecting a district that cares for its facilities and its future
Graham & Hyde’s work goes far beyond architecture — it’s a testament to what happens when a school district dares to dream big, and a trusted partner helps make that dream reality.
Together, Monmouth-Roseville and Graham & Hyde have built more than facilities. They’ve built momentum, confidence, and a brighter future for generations of students to come.
