Phelps architecture construction and engineering high school phelps fresh food to go
Phelps Architecture, Construction and Engineering High School, or Phelps A.C.E. High School, is a public high school located in the northeast quadrant of the District of Columbia, United States. The school is often considered to be a prime example of the school investment program currently occurring in DC. Having fallen victim to time and neglect the school was rebuilt by an award winning Architect from several smaller buildings into its current form. Along with Architecture, construction and Engineering other courses are also taught there, including vehicle maintenance/repair and operation of large vehicles such as Cranes and Diggers on state of the art simulators. The school also has a small Greenhouse where plants can be tended by the students. The buildings are powered by a variety of renewable energy sources (indicated by the colour-coded pipes inside, each colour denoting a different system). The students, as part of their course work, are trusted to montior and maintain parts of this system.
