A covered walk-way and elevated flower bed welcome visitors to the main entrance and lobby of the school. The administrative offices are located in the center of the building, as well . One large instruction area housed four or five classes of the same grade level. The halls open to a large group instruction area that may be used for guest speakers, Grow Lab projects, or any learning activity that requires more space. One important component of our remodeling allowed for additional technology in the classrooms.
Students benefit from four or five computers, with Internet access, in each room.
Teachers have the capability of connecting their laptop computers to the television for lessons, as well. Grade levels share video and digital cameras and we have a central production room for broadcasting and video editing. Every fifth grader will have the opportunity to participate in the writing, presentation, and taping of a newscast this year. Other appreciated improvements include the introduction of natural light via windows and skylights into almost every room, and individual restrooms for each grade level. Instructional Media Center Located near the heart of our building, the Media Center offers a place to do research, recreational reading, or choose books to check out for the week.
