• Optimize corridor spaces and other alcoves to create small group instruction nooks to take advantage of all potential learning spaces

• Provide opportunities for the building to become a teaching tool, through active dashboards and visible construction / systems

• Create adaptable learning environments through creative design and flexible furniture

• Create flex classrooms with movable partitions to accommodate fluctuating enrollment

Goal 5: Meet the Needs of the Whole Child• Improvements to the field and outdoor play areas promoting better
