"We all know technology now is everyday thing and its used in teaching and schools of yesterday don't reflect that change and so that will change the feel and look in a school.

You are going to see a lot of spaces, very adaptable, moving cabinets, not fixed.  A lot of space, a lot of changes in what the spaces can be used for.  There will be a lot of changes in the library -- it's not just a p ace to check out a book, but a place to do colloborative learning, more hands on learning."

 

Wednesday night, Steel Associates will be revealing thier designs for the new elementary school at Jewell Elementary from 5:30 to7 P.M.
