The Grapeview K-8 campus modernization provides state-of-the-art spaces that support innovative teaching, project-based learning, and promote a collaborative school environment. Creation of shared collaboration areas, an academic courtyard, and an outdoor amphitheater connected to the music room and stage allow learning to happen in a variety of settings beyond the classrooms. Close collaboration with neighborhood stakeholders throughout the planning process was integral to delivering a successful design, as the school is a central part of the local community.
