From the 2023 Educational Interiors Showcase: Wareham Elementary School

Dec. 15, 2023
The project was recognized as an outstanding design in the pre-K/Early Childhood Education category.

The new Wareham Elementary School in Wareham, Massachusetts, responds to community aspirations for modern and accessible public amenities. The building consists of two classroom “neighborhood” wings and a centralized community core. Two classroom wings create grade-specific learning neighborhoods and can be securely separated and shut down during after-hours activities. The main entry features colorful wall graphics and terrazzo floors celebrating the town. Beaches, woodlands, cranberry bogs and wetlands and ponds inspire palettes for each grade’s “learning neighborhood.” Floor patterns encourage circulation paths and active play for indoor recess.
