Varied Learning Studios and Flexible Spaces at Arcola

The new Arcola Community School moves away from a 20^th century “cells and bells” model of classrooms and corridors, to embrace a more flexible and varied model where teachers can choose from a variety of spaces to suit the learning activities, and students have the space to be creative, working on projects as individuals or in groups, either with their hands or with the latest technology.

Learning Studios, sized for 20-30 students, can be reconfigured for a variety of activities

Quiet Learning Studios accommodate students who need more focus, and are designed with soundproofing to support students with special needs, such as those in the Behavioral Alternative Resource Program (BARP) program.

Seminar and Small Meeting Rooms are equipped for students to learn through discussion or project collaboration.
