School Design for Health and Wellbeing
School learning environments can greatly affect student health and achievement. Many schools in the United States are overcrowded and in states of disrepair, placing the students at a disadvantage. I am proposing the design of a public high school building to promote student achievement, while focusing on overall occupant health. This school promotes health and wellbeing through spatial layout and design of the indoor learning environment. The school can safely accommodate students during the COVID-19 pandemic, and through the future. The small-scale design, accommodating 200 students will limit large-scale gatherings and limit student contact to those within their classroom unit. This school will act as a model to follow for future school design that promotes student’s health, wellbeing, and levels of achievement.
