The Miami-Dade County (Florida) district has broken ground on a $36.2 million renovation of J.C. Bermudez Senior High School in Doral.
The district says the project includes construction of a three-story building with 85,000 square feet and 617 new student stations; a 2,000-seat gymnasium, a Little Theater/Black Box Theater, a gymnastics dance studio and a multipurpose room.
The building also will have four vocational/business tech labs, 12 general classrooms and four science classrooms.
The existing Building 2 will be renovated with kitchen improvements, a covered dining area, a weight room and renovations to the wrestling room. Additionally, there will be new covered walkways.
The builder is Pirtle Construction Company.
Construction is expected to be completed in June 2026. Funding for the project comes from a voter-approved $1.2 billion bond issue in 2012.
