Shaw Contract partners with CHPS on Minor Renovations
The Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS) is excited to announce that Shaw Contract has signed on to its Minor Renovations Program.
The flooring company will be a Catalyst-level sponsor/partner for this innovative program, which was launched in 2023 alongside government partner Sourcewell. Shaw Contract will play a key role in developing the flooring component of the Minor Renovations Program.
The program is designed to create national project standards to help schools across the country complete smaller but just-as-critical renovation projects according to interdisciplinary best practices that ensure all students have access to healthy learning environments. In addition to flooring, HVAC and lighting projects will be initial areas of focus.
"Shaw Contract is thrilled to partner with CHPS in advancing sustainable, healthy, and high-performing learning environments,” said Shaw Contract’s Sara Hudson. “Together, we are committed to transforming environments that support the well-being of students, educators, and communities while fostering a brighter, more sustainable future for education."
Shaw joins fellow flooring companies Tarkett, DalTile and Mohawk Group, designer Quattrocchi Kwok Architects (QKA) and engineering firm Salas O’Brien as key supporting partners.
“We are thrilled to have Shaw Contract as a partner for the Minor Renovations program,” said CHPS Program Director Jen Collins. “Their industry knowledge and expertise, as well as their shared passion to support healthy learning, will significantly boost the program's impact within our school districts.”
Los Angeles Unified, Cypress-Fairbanks (TX) Independent, and Clark County (NV) school districts have committed to participate in the development of the program, and we are seeking more.
