Board approves referendum project architecture firm 

The Beaufort County Board of Education has approved Charleston-based Little Diversified Architectural Company to design Hilton Head Island High School’s rebuild. 

The 2019 Referendum included funding for the design of the Hilton Head High School rebuild, with the construction portion of this project being part of a future referendum. 

As the largest single story school structure within Beaufort County School District (BCSD), the existing Hilton Head High School building was originally constructed in 1983 with multiple additions over the years. 

As one of the largest projects in the district’s recent history, “The committee felt community involvement will be crucial to the success of the Hilton Head High School design process,” BCSD Chief Operations Officer Robert Oetting said in a news release. “We look forward to commencing the design work and engaging the community in the process.”
