The school's specialized classrooms, offices, and labs are organized around this common area according to input from key stakeholders, faculty, and families. During the design process, we learned the best way to support their collaborative, interdisciplinary teaching method is through academic "pods" — rings of classrooms surrounding a shared multipurpose studio. This flexible studio space gives students in different subjects the opportunity to work together and apply their knowledge in creative but practical ways.

Learning pods are distributed across the building, grouping students together by age to best support the ways each cohort learns. The commons, which links the pods together, provides flexible spaces for break-out learning, studying with tutors, hosting clubs, and bringing together the entire school community. Its durable concrete construction maximizes the school's budget and opportunities for learning.
