The Charles County Public Schools (CCPS) is requesting sealed bids for the modernization and addition to La Plata High School. Bids will be received by Scheibel Construction via the BuildingConnected platform until April 15, 2026 at 2 p.m. Proposals must be submitted electronically prior to the stated deadline. This is a closed solicitation, and bids will not be publicly opened. Late submissions will not be accepted.

Brief project description: The La Plata High School renovation and expansion project involves significant upgrades to the original 1979 building and the construction of a new two-story addition on the southeast side. A key feature of the redesign is relocating the main entrance to the southeast facade of the new addition, facing Radio Station Rd, which better aligns with the school's attendance zone and improves visibility and access. This new entry will be positioned between redesigned bus and student drop-off loops and will include a secure vestibule for controlled access. Inside, the addition will feature a wide corridor connecting to the existing building, with art classrooms on the first floor and science labs and a special education suite on the second floor. Three new courtyards will separate the addition from the existing structure, providing natural light and outdoor learning spaces.

Renovations throughout the existing building will vary in scope, with some areas undergoing full reconfiguration and others receiving upgrades to finishes and fixtures. The Student Dining Area will be expanded and elevated to improve accessibility, with a new learning stair and skylights to enhance natural lighting. The Media Center will also be renovated and enlarged. Egress improvements include a new stair tower at the current main entry and an expanded northwest stairwell. Classroom wings will be reconfigured to improve circulation and classroom functionality, while specialty spaces like the choral and band rooms, gymnasium, auditorium, and kitchen will receive targeted updates. Additional facilities will support the theater program, including a drama classroom and storage areas.

Bidders shall obtain the Contract Documents, including construction drawings and specifications in digital format, from the Construction Manager, Scheibel Construction. Documents will be released only to firms pre-qualified through TradeTapp. Firms requesting prequalification or access to the documents may contact laplatahs@scheibelconstruction.com.
