The curtains have officially risen at the newly renovated auditorium at Thomas Jefferson High School. As a key piece of the Council Bluffs Community School District’s Facility Master Plan, Prairie Construction has transformed this historic space into a state-of-the-art performance venue. 

Key Project Highlights 

Theatrical Excellence: We installed professional-grade lighting, rigging, curtains, and a high-fidelity sound system to give students a true “pro-stage” experience. 

Acoustics & Aesthetics: The space features specialized acoustic treatments, fresh paint, and new carpeting to ensure every performance looks and sounds its best. 

Modern Comfort: We replaced the original seating with ergonomic chairs and overhauled the HVAC system for maximum climate control and energy efficiency. 

Universal Access: Significant upgrades were made to ensure the facility is fully ADA compliant, welcoming all members of our community. 

Building for the Future 

This renovation is more than a facelift—it’s an investment in the arts. By blending modern infrastructure with cutting-edge theatrical technology, Prairie Construction is proud to help the Council Bluffs Community School District provide a world-class environment for the next generation of performers.
