Rumsey Hall School Master Plan

Washington, Connecticut

Rumsey Hall is a junior boarding and day school situated on 147 acres along the Bantam River. Its 32 residential scale buildings are arranged along a moderate slope overlooking the river, and convey the feel of a small New England village that is in keeping with its role as an elementary level academic community. Tecton was engaged by the school to develop and implement a long range campus master plan, focused on enhancing, enlarging or replacing core academic and residential life facilities, while maintaining the charm and character of the existing campus. Completed projects include the new Dorothy Rochon Anderson Administration Building and conceptual design and fundraising support for a new dormitory.
