Renovation
The 6 classrooms will be renovated to create an inspiring learning environment for Akilah students.A porch will extend to the courtyard adjacent to each building, and will provide unique intermediary gathering spaces which will buffer the classroom from outdoor public spaces. Roof design will maintain a shed roof, but will promote passive cooling by its pitch and clerestory openings. Materials for the roof will also consider acoustic qualities of the classroom environment and will be designed for rainwater collection.
