Education takes place within and outside the classroom. The learning environment is the whole site and so children need to be stimulated everywhere they go. Satellite administration hub connects the core curriculum to the music and arts wing for increased security and oversight.

Music classrooms include chorus, band/orchestra, and strings classrooms. All are provided with the tools needed for an educational experience focused on music and performance. All rooms were modeled to maximize sound absorption and flow through the room, both horizontally and vertically. Acoustical performance scenarios were modeled to achieve the best possible environment for the program.
