Prime Trade Contracting

Poettker Construction served as the prime trades contractor for two phases of the multi-phased expansion at Marion High School, including the construction of the Health Education Center (Phase 2) and the Classroom Addition (Phase 3). Together, these phases added over 217,000 SF of new educational space to the campus. Poettker also placed more than 3,000 yards of concrete, self-performing major portions of the foundation work to ensure quality and efficiency.

  • Phase 2 – Health Education Center involved a 74,040 SF state-of-the-art facility featuring a gymnasium, weight and cardio training areas, locker rooms, coach’s offices, nurse and training rooms, regular and caged storage, and a multi-purpose room. Built as a pre-engineered metal building, the structure includes over 200 tons of steel, offering long-term durability and design flexibility.

  • Phase 3 – Classroom Addition features a 143,130 SF two-story academic wing with 49 classrooms, science and specialty labs, audio/visual areas, lecture halls, offices, conference rooms, and a gym entry with a lobby and concessions. The design centers around a wide, curved corridor that promotes accessibility and collaboration throughout the learning environment.
