Mount Paran Christian
School Master Plan Marietta, Georgia • 69 acres
Founded in 1976 as a preschool and kindergarten program on Mount Paran Church of God’s campus, Mount Paran Christian School has grown to provide pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade for about 1,000 students. To accommodate the growth, Mount Paran Christian School commissioned Randall-Paulson Architects to design new facilities in 2000. RPA’s first task was to assist the school with site selection and analysis.
A 70 acre site was chosen at the corner of Barrett Parkway and Stilesboro Road. With woodlands, open-space, and a seven acre lake, the site was ideally suited for the school’s plans. RPA developed a masterplan for the site which included designs for:
• Preschool
• Lower School
• Middle School
• Common Area including:
Administration, Media Centers,
Dining, and Athletics
• High School
• Future Arena Gym Complex
• Outdoor Athletics
The masterplan evolved in 2002 to include:
• Fine Arts Center
• Worship Center
• Continuing Education Facility
The school is now in the beginning stages of further updating the masterplan to reflect unprecedented growth with the addition of a Chapel, a High School Addition, and new Middle School expanded parking.
