Award-Winning Beauty
SAN DIEGO - The city and Chamber of Commerce of Chula Vista, Calif., awarded Tucker Sadler Noble Castro Architecture firm a beautification award for its design of the Corky McMillin Elementary School.

The 60,000-square-foot elementary school is comprised of nine one-story buildings clustered in a village-like arrangement on a 10.3-acre site. The school accommodates 750 students in grades K-6. The Chula Vista selection committee liked the school's different shapes; colors; and changes in elevation, form, and texture.

The award was given to projects completed in 2001 and the firm was one of 14 construction projects receiving awards. The Corky McMillin Elementary School was the only school building to receive an award. The ceremony was Chula Vista's 39th annual awards program.
