Eleva-Strum Elementary School
We partnered with the School District of Eleva-Strum to create a new elementary addition, allowing them to operate one building instead of three.
Need: Consolidate the district’s two elementary schools to encourage student collaboration between both schools
Solution: Add onto the existing middle/high school to create an elementary wing
Result: A K-12 unified campus with collaboration spaces throughout the new addition

Elevated Elementary Experience
The new Eleva-Strum Elementary School features shared collaboration spaces for exploration and hands-on learning opportunities. This includes space for small group breakout sessions to large, multi-class activities. Glass windows and doors create visual and physical connection between these collaboration spaces and the adjacent classrooms.

Successful Referendum
With our support, the district passed two referendum questions, including funds for a consolidated K-12 building. The new elementary wing serves 4K-5th grade.
