Strub Hall: Century 2

List of 5 items.

• 

  More spaces for students and teachers to collaborate

  So much of a Holy Child education happens beyond the classroom—when teachers become mentors and cheerleaders. Our students need dedicated places to meet with their teachers and advisors one-on-one for office hours and other consultations. And, teachers also need space to collaborate on cross-departmental lessons—the kind of interdisciplinary learning that helps teenage brains connect concepts and gain deeper understanding.
• 

  Campus-wide access to tech-enhanced educational experiences

  We’re always looking for ways to maximize the kind of 21st-century learning spaces that build collaborative, confident students who are ready for college and beyond. This remodel ensures that our older Strub Hall classrooms have the kind of flexible, technology-enhanced layouts that support student-centered learning. We’re also adding two new classrooms and a dedicated digital content hub.  
• 

  Improved health, safety and accessibility for all

  Our students, teachers and staff will benefit from improved earthquake and fire safety infrastructure, and everyone will a little breathe easier with a new HVAC system that boosts our indoor air quality. We’re also enhancing access with ramps to enable everyone in our community to safely navigate Strub Hall, furthering our Catholic, Holy Child commitment to inclusivity and respect.

  A focus on empowering student leaders

  Holy Child students learn how to lead others, to educate and inspire their classmates to participate with Actions Not Words. Mayfield’s student-led organizations need places to meet, strategize, and collaborate, whether they’re making a video for an assembly presentation, planning a Mass, or coming up with spirit games to entertain and engage their classmates. We’re creating a central hub for student empowerment in Strub Hall, a place to foster dialogue, celebrate our differences, and support spiritual and personal growth.

  A big boost to our sustainability and energy efficiency

  Installing efficient and sustainable utilities means substantial cost savings and more resources for our classrooms. Replacing our 100-year-old boiler with a modern HVAC system will provide a more efficient temperature control system, and upgrading our aging plumbing and electrical systems will give us a safe and reliable infrastructure to support the needs of our campus community.
