Client Testimonials

Columbus City Schools featured the Northland High School capital improvements in its own project video — the renovated gymnasium with new lighting, graphics, scoreboard and resurfaced floor, the new athletic locker room, refreshed stadium seating, and an auditorium rebuilt with new seating, flooring, stage lighting and show technology.

Garrett Brinkman, Project Manager, Office of Capital Improvements, Columbus City Schools, walks Northland High School to show the results of a year long capital improvement project:

• Athletics — a new locker room built to better support Northland student athletes and teams.

• Gymnasium — fully renovated: new lighting, new graphics, a new scoreboard, and a resurfaced floor.

• Stadium — refreshed seating at the existing football/track stadium, framed as improving the experience for students, families, staff and fans.

• Auditorium — new seating and flooring, plus new stage lighting and updated show technology for theater productions, concerts and live events.

• Soundbite from a school staff member on what the upgrades do for students: a sense of school pride, and "a sense of just fun."

• Closing theme — the district frames it as more than a facilities investment: an investment in Northland's students, community and future.

Edgerton Local Schools had been thinking about a new bus garage for years, and after hearing about Prodigy from another school district, they decided to give us a call. In this testimonial, they talk about what it was like working with the Prodigy team—from the early planning and communication to the people managing the work on site. They especially appreciated how responsive the team was whenever questions or concerns came up and how smoothly the project came together. It’s a great example of how Prodigy helps Ohio school districts take projects they’ve been talking about for years and finally turn them into reality.

Longtime Patrick Henry community member Konnie Meyer reflects on just how much the school has changed after the renovation project, calling the transformation “mind-boggling.” She talks about improvements throughout the building and campus—from the roof, windows, and landscaping to plumbing, wiring, air conditioning, classrooms, the cafeteria, and the gym—and the pride those upgrades have created for students, staff, and the community. Prodigy Building Solutions has worked with Patrick Henry Schools on facility improvements including gymnasium renovations, energy-efficient LED lighting upgrades, and a middle school restroom expansion. The result is a more modern, functional learning environment that the Patrick Henry community can be proud of, and a great example of the impact thoughtful school renovation can have for an Ohio school district.
