Personalized learning
Personalized learning was the primary design direction for this new high school. The program represents a refined repeat plan of Atascocita High School and was guided by recommendations from the school district’s High Schools of the Future Task Force. The school is designed with smaller learning communities within the larger 2,400 student community.
Smaller learning communities
The smaller learning communities each accommodate 400 students. They include an assistant principal and counselor suite, conference facilities, student learning spaces (classrooms and smaller team rooms), science labs and associated prep areas, as well as spaces for student collaboration. The spaces have different shapes and sizes and are designed to allow for teams of two or more students to interact, meet, work on computers, plan events, and a host of other activities – much like spaces found on college campuses.
