Designing Schools . . . With Kids In Mind!

Our Projects

Why Claycomb?

“After passing our $124 million bond referendum in November 2016, we have come a long way in fulfilling the obligations posed to our school board and administration.  During construction, we had 2 hurricanes, 137 inches of rain in one year, and are currently dealing with a pandemic.  But even with all of this, our projects are being completed on time and on budget.  I know that our Blackcat community is proud of what we have accomplished these last 4 years, and our students are proud to learn in first-class facilities.  We have three new campuses, a new baseball field and a new stadium – more than anyone could have ever imagined.  Thank you, Claycomb, we could not have done it without you.”

Our Philosophy

The Claycomb Associates’ philosophy is to wrap a building around your curriculum and instructional program. To state it another way: Designing Schools . . . with Kids in Mind!

Service

We listen — we bring a client-centered approach to every project, taking time to understand your facility goals and helping make them a reality.

We document — we are attentive to details and provide clear communication with you as your project progresses.

We follow through — we design what you want so that your facility meets your district’s needs and serves your entire community.

Relationships

When we engage a school district, it’s not just a business relationship; it’s a partnership based on collaboration, trust, and shared values.

Our focus is student-centered design. Your focus is student success.

Where our values overlap is the opportunity for a thriving partnership that will not only help your students and staff, but also provide a great source of pride for your entire community.

As a part of expanding our relationships with school districts, Claycomb is a proud sponsor of the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA) and proud partner of the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB). 

Quality

Step-by-step Assistance – A successful project starts with good planning.  That’s why we provide comprehensive pre-bond support to give your project a framework for success.

Predictable Costs— Because of our effective budgeting and cost estimation process, our projects are constructed on time and within budgets.

Hands-On Oversight—We do not delegate construction oversight.  Instead, a dedicated Project Manager will be assigned to you, will know the specifics of your project, and will stay with you through project completion – and beyond.

Sustainability

Our designs respect the environment and address LEED goals in common sense ways, such as daylight harvesting, rainwater harvesting, and energy management conservation. We also strive to use locally-sourced materials whenever possible. Our clients can be confident that the design staff assigned to your project are LEED certified and will work with you to create an energy-conscious facility that provide operational savings.
