The design for the district’s 33rd elementary school will be
unveiled at tonight’s Board of Trustees’ meeting. WRA Architects will present
the schematic design for the school to be built south of Interstate 20 at the
intersection of Lawson and Lasater roads.
It’s an impressive plan, designed first and foremost to
support the instructional practices. The proposal calls for the campus to offer
an abundance of natural light, and research shows this
promotes learning. In addition, the octagon-shaped Library is completely
accessible to classrooms, making it easy for classes to visit for research
projects.
Features unique to our district elementary schools include a
learning courtyard between two classroom wings with benches and ground-level
covering for students to sit on during outdoor instruction. The walking trail
that will compliment the school’s outdoor playground is also like none other.
This new campus will be built in a highly populated area of
Mesquite ISD. It will relieve crowding at Mackey and Gray elementaries.
