Hands-on Education
The project builds on the District's educational program by embodying its stated commitment to a 21st century STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) student-centered education, a commitment which has already been acted upon through advanced teaching and learning programs at the elementary school level in preparation for this project. STEAM-compatible educational environments are achieved through the creation of student-driven, problem-based, and hands-on project space within the school's proposed three floor plans. These spaces are provided together with a high degree of visual and functional connectedness.
