CASE STUDY: Denver School of Science & Technology, Denver
With school enrollment projected to increase at record levels through 2013, and spending on school construction, renovation and maintenance expected to total nearly $30 billion annually, the need to transform our schools has never been more urgent. To learn how you can help schools make better design decisions, attend the Schools of the 21st Century Symposium on March 28, 2008, in Orlando, Florida. The event is presented by Architectural Record with the support of McGraw-Hill Education and the American Architectural Foundation.
