Leman Academy of Excellence

Leman Academy is known for its personalized learning opportunities and smaller class sizes that serves student on tuition-free campuses in Arizona and Colorado. The Parker, Colorado location is its eighth campus. The new facility includes classrooms, a gymnasium, music room with platform stage, commons/cafeteria, administration offices, collaborative learning environments, science labs, and art rooms.

Henderson Engineers modernized the building systems by introducing a building automation system (BAS) and replacing the previous maintenance-heavy setup. BAS is a centralized control system for buildings, monitoring and managing building-wide systems like HVAC, lighting, access controls, and more. The school previously relied on gas-fired furnaces with split-system cooling for each classroom. We implemented a more efficient variable air volume (VAV) system with electric reheat boxes, eliminating numerous filters and condensate pumps. This upgrade significantly reduces maintenance needs while improving energy efficiency.
