Evergreen Elementary School houses 156 special education and 605 general education students in 100,742SF. Maintaining equity was key, so our design team was sensitive when planning spaces for the special needs population. Some of our design solutions included widened hallways to protect walls with fiberglass wainscot for wheelchair mobility, bathrooms with lifts for both student comfort and staff ergonomics, and drop-offs with ramps and without curbs to accommodate 14 buses and 150 cars. We combined both special education and general education buses into one loading area to drop off students at the main entrance of the building.
