California Junior High School Gets Addition

  • 06/22/18

A new eight-classroom building is nearing completion at Kermit McKenzie Junior High School in Guadalupe, Calif. The new building at the school will feature six standard classrooms and two special education classrooms. The new facility will help with anticipated growth in the Guadalupe Union School District.

Two of the key aims of the new construction are to promote accessibility and handle issues that are related to increasing enrollment in the district. The new “eightplex,” which will cost an anticipated $18 million, has an expected completion timeframe around the start of school in August 2018.

  • Rethinking K-12 Schools as a Continuous Learning Experience

    Most students move through three or more separate facilities during their K-12 journey, yet the built environments they encounter at each stage have traditionally been designed in isolation, with little continuity in spatial language, learning philosophy, or physical resources. Each new school is a reset with different layouts, learning models, expectations, and ways of moving through a building. The next generation of school design is making the case that the first day of kindergarten and the last day of high school can and should feel connected through common support systems and infrastructure in the physical environment.
