Good teachers and motivated students can overcome inadequate facilities and perform at a high level almost anywhere, but a well-designed facility can truly enhance performance and make education more enjoyable and rewarding. Students and teachers shouldn't have to fight against their own classrooms to have a productive learning experience. We want all schools to be:
- Healthy
- Comfortable
- Energy Efficient
- Material Efficient
- Easy to Maintain & Operate
- Commissioned
- Environmentally Responsive
- Teaching Sites
- Safe & Secure
- Community Resources
- Architecturally Stimulating
- Adaptable to Changing Needs
