Transforming our schools must be a collaborative endeavor.
Scaling better schools for better students requires better, bolder collaboration among anyone involved in improving the lives of students through the lens of school buildings and facilities.
CHPS works with diverse experts across a variety of disciplines and perspectives like school districts, building designers and architects, utilities, state agencies, and think tanks or NGOs with expertise in building science, education, student health, and safety.
As a collaborative, we work to oversee and implement existing programs, shape future initiatives, and most importantly align the industry around the urgent need to do more.
“Working together is crucial when you are solving a problem as big and complex as school performance in school districts around the country — each of which has different facility types, internal resources, and community priorities. The diverse capabilities and perspectives that CHPS has and continues to bring together is one of the organization's biggest strengths. Collaboration is part of their name for an important reason.”
— Roy Sprague, Senior VP, Prolego Consulting Solutions, Former COO for Cypress-Fairbanks ISD (TX); Chair, CHPS Board of Directors
