check out this example from Toronto... North Toronto Collegiate Institute - a public high school.

In 2002 students of North Toronto contacted the TDSB to begin talks to build a new school.[12] Their current school was one of the oldest in the TDSB, and was in need of much repair. It was a long planning process, made difficult by the lack of funds the TDSB could provide, and in 2003 it was decided the only way to proceed was with additional private investment. This took the form of Tridel, a large condominium building company. The TDSB sold less than an acre of land to the company for $23 million.[13] Planning and design continued until ground breaking occurred November 21, 2007, a year after the project had originally been slated to be completed. During construction the school remained open, as the new building is built where the old one's field was. The old building was later demolished, with parts of it being preserved in the new building's courtyard. The controversial aspect is that Tridel has built two condos, 24 and 27 stories, on the same lot as the new school.[14] The new school was opened in september 2010, and the condos and the school's new field october 2011. The new building, which costs an estimated 52 million dollars,[15] features a roof garden, underground parking lot, and school-wide wifi system.
