Designer and Owner Comments:
Designer Comments:  The site was master planned to accommodate the future elementary school, parking, service, and playfield requirements. Drawing on the suburban nature of the site, a spacious oval lawn connects the two schools. Bus and automobile parking surfaces will be shared between them, preserving green spaces for school activities. The school's �finger-plan� design is organized around three daylighted grade houses for grades 6-8. A major daylighted circulation corridor, or �street,� connects the grade houses to the shared spaces of the program. The design takes full advantage of natural daylighting techniques via clerestory windows and lightshelves at the window wall. This strategy provides superior lighting for the individual classrooms as well as the shared common areas in each grade house. Additionally, the presence of an Assistant Principal and Guidance Counselor, as well as teacher work space in each grade wing creates a very safe atmosphere within the school.
