At its meeting in early March, the Sheridan County School District 2 in Sheridan, Wyo., awarded a bid for new bleachers to Tutt Construction Inc. of Billings, Mont. The total bid for the project, including delivery and installation of the new bleachers at Sheridan High School, was $147,000.

According to Assistant Superintendent Scott Stults, the new bleachers will replace the portable ones currently residing on the west and east sides of the high-school gymnasium. Unlike the existing ones, the new bleachers will be motorized, allowing one or two people to be able to move them as necessary instead of a larger group.

Stults also said that the new bleachers will be much more secure and much safer than the ones currently in use.

    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.
