Birdville High School

As part of the 2022 Bond program, Friends Consulting Group (FCG) oversaw the transformation of the Birdville High School courtyard. The project began as a solution to persistent drainage issues but evolved into a complete aesthetic enhancement of the outdoor space. FCG managed the removal of old concrete and retaining walls to make way for extensive earthwork and a new underground storm system. While preserving many existing trees, the team also oversaw the planting of over 50 new ones. A 1,980-square-foot standalone canopy was installed to provide a shaded area for students to enjoy lunch outside. Further upgrades included integral colored concrete, unit pavers, synthetic turf, limestone retaining walls, improved site lighting, and new landscaping. To complete the vibrant, low-maintenance space, custom furniture such as tables, cornhole boards, and ping-pong tables were added, creating a dynamic area for students to relax and connect.
