Description

Now is a great time to be an educator at Marin Catholic where we are developing a new Master Plan that will help set our academic direction over the next 20 years.  Central to our goals is providing our students with well-resourced, dynamic learning spaces that inspire and foster collaborative learning and leadership.  A 21st Century classroom is a more flexible and more communal one where students work together on group projects, solve problems in teams, and share opinions and ideas in seminar discussions. We can begin to better enable this rich variety of activity by outfitting our rooms with furniture that arranges and rearranges with ease and speed. This includes tables and chairs that can configure into small sectionals, large group work space, and even work alone units. While we will continue to adapt and innovate our curriculum in order to achieve contemporary academic success, strong relationships will remain at the heart of a Marin Catholic education.  More versatile classroom furniture will inspire more dynamic activity and foster better team engagement.
