Fall Newsletter & Annual Report 2022

FUTURE CAMPUS VISION

We want to push the boundaries of what’s possible in elementary education and build upon Bertschi’s position as a leader of environmental sustainability—all through a lens of equity and our community values.

New spaces will be large, with plenty of natural light, good acoustics, the flexibility to support differentiated, hands-on learning, as well as child-led exploration, creativity, and problem-solving. Our teachers will be able to deliver our excellent program in classrooms that even more effectively support the students and better foster collaboration between teachers. High Quality Learning Spaces Environmental Sustainability & Justice As we prepare to enter the design phase for future campus development, we remain committed to environmental sustainability–and to the development of something new: a set of standards that center equity and social justice in the design, construction, and use of new buildings.

Equity & Access

We will prioritize universal accessibility across the entire campus. Learning spaces will be designed so that teachers have what they need to accommodate a diversity of learning styles and approaches. And, the process of campus development will be tied to a set of standards that center equity and social justice in the design, construction, and use of new buildings.

Child-centered "Village" Feel

By repurposing buildings and thoughtfully adding new buildings and features, the campus master plan roots us in Bertschi's child-centered "village" feel, where students move freely and independently between indoor and outdoor spaces.
