Greenleaf Architects assessed the current conditions of the 12-acre site to develop a strategy for stormwater management on the property and phased future growth of church and school facilities. This involved working with the owner, project consultants, adjacent properties, and parish planning and zoning to find a cost-effective solution with low environmental impact. The master plan design preserved heritage trees and allowed the church and school facilities to expand in multiple phases while addressing all stormwater drainage issues.

Greenleaf Architects and Domain Architecture further showcase their team’s skills working in St. Tammany Parish through their ongoing work with the School Board. The Joint Venture was awarded a 48-classroom, 64,000-square-foot building addition to their campus with a construction value of $16 Million for upgrades, and perceived student body growth.
The team at Greenleaf and Domain have worked very closely with the school and the School Board to fill the needs of the 2nd and 3rd graders, and the administration of this district within St. Tammany Parish. The project involves construction phasing on an active campus, and coordinating existing classroom demolition with new classroom construction to ensure an uninterrupted learning environment.
The new building features 48 classrooms, bold wayfinding solutions across all hallway flooring, colorful stairwells and restrooms, a state-of-the-art media center, and more! In existing areas, renovations encompass a refreshed administration area (with the addition of bold wayfinding flooring solutions that extend into all hallways), an updated cafetorium, and a newly designed music room, spotlighted by an ADA-friendly stage for in-class learning and performances. To come, the final wing of classrooms will be built, as well as the definition of the courtyard with its three outdoor learning spaces, to complete the campus.
Greenleaf Architects, in collaboration with Domain Architecture, is proud to continue enhancing the Magnolia Trace Elementary campus through a multi-phase transformation that enriches both learning and exploration.
Building on this vision, the second phase introduced a new media center and exterior courtyard, thoughtfully designed to inspire young minds. The media center provides an engaging environment for reading, learning, and discovery, while the courtyard offers a vibrant space for students to explore, collaborate, and imagine new possibilities every day. These additions foster creativity and growth, reinforcing Magnolia Trace Elementary’s mission to nurture curiosity and innovation in every student.
Together, these projects reflect Greenleaf Architects’ commitment to designing spaces that support education, strengthen community, and shape the future of learning in St. Tammany Parish.

Honoring its past while embracing the future, St. Scholastica Academy is transforming its existing library into a dynamic, multi-use learning environment.
