The district is unique in that there is a large percentage of students that walk or bike to school, with the elementary schools nestled into established neighborhoods.&nbsp;When it came time to redesign the schools, a primary driver was that they fit into the same \u201cneighborhood school\u201d model.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The school district\u2019s vision for the new Glencairn Elementary was to create environments where 21st century learning could take place. It was also a priority to create spaces where the students enjoyed learning and the staff enjoyed teaching. One way was for our team to carefully consider connections that could be made linking indoors to outdoors visually and physically.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-73db555c wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><section class=\"higherup-accordion__section\">\n    <div class=\"higherup-accordion__wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<div class=\"higherup-accordion__tab-container\">\n    <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<button id=\"\" class=\"accordion-headline-container\" aria-controls=\"headline-content\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n    <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading accordion-headline\">Project News &amp; Awards<\/h3>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/button>\n\n\n<div id=\"headline-content\" class=\"accordion-content-container\">\n    <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/secure.viewer.zmags.com\/publication\/8492d42a#\/8492d42a\/43\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">American School &amp; University 2019 Outstanding Design<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/educationsnapshots.com\/projects\/17590\/glencairn-elementary-school\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Education Snapshots: Glencairn Elementary School<\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33%\"><div class=\"taxonomy-focus focus-list-block wp-block-post-terms\"><span class=\"wp-block-post-terms__prefix\">Focuses<br><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/gmb.com\/focus\/pre-bond-campaign-management\/\" rel=\"tag\">Pre-Bond\/Campaign Management<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-3e3f4aed wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:4rem;margin-bottom:4rem;padding-top:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N3_casestudy-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17746\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N3_casestudy-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N3_casestudy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N3_casestudy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N3_casestudy.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N5_casestudy-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17747\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N5_casestudy-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N5_casestudy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N5_casestudy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gmb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/5_4154_N5_casestudy.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-898c1be4 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:4rem;margin-bottom:4rem;padding-right:0;padding-left:0\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:40%\">\n<p>Safety and security were thought through in layers starting from entry into the site all the way through to individual classrooms.
