As a first of its kind combination elementary and middle school for Dallas ISD, the new 224,000 square foot facility houses two schools that will function separately but share a kitchen, central plant, and auditorium. Each school has its own entry identity and private courtyard allowing for access to separate playing fields. The building responds to its urban surroundings by pushing itself to the street edge, helping to define the boundary between pedestrians and vehicles. Creating this "urban edge" at the busy five corner intersection also helps to establish the school as a catalyst for community improvement.
