Sandhills Community College (SCC) in Pinehurst, North Carolina has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the development of a program, budget, campus design standards, and preferred building systems for a New Vocation Career Path Early College High School to be constructed on the SCC campus. The selected firm will be responsible for engaging with all user groups to define the project requirements that will be used for the subsequent design and construction of the new school.
