Abundant Life Christian School (ALCS), now one of two Madison Christian Schools campuses, was founded in 1978 and has grown steadily, today serving more than 225 K-12 students whose families attend about 50 different churches across Dane County.
Such growth put a strain on the school’s original facilities. In addition, the school’s founding church had a daycare center that started to use parts of the school when space in the church basement became limiting. The school’s principal, facilities manager and building committee determined they needed to double classroom space to meet demand.
NCI-Roberts Construction completed two separate additions to the school in less than two years, each totaling 12,000 square feet. The firm worked closely with ALCS administrators to keep costs low and the construction process efficient.
The additions included classrooms, a kitchen, administrative offices, a second gymnasium, a library and a media room.
Following the additions, NCI-Roberts constructed a 30,000 square foot daycare facility, Campus for Kids, adjacent to the school. More than a decade later, the firm completed an interior renovation for the founding church after it merged with another congregation in Madison to form City Church.
