1. Project Name: IMC Remodel/Expansion
2. Project Number: 8
3. Campus Name: Cleveland Elementary
4. Project Description:
We would like to transform our IMC in our building to a more flexible space that supports
both large and small group work. We would also like to expand this space so that the
computer lab would have its own dedicated space. The furnishings we currently have are
metal and don't allow for us to move them in order to open up the space when needed for
larger gatherings. We need a larger open space with furnishings that are moveable and
with technology that can help support our student learning.
5. Project Objectives:
The current IMC space is very small and has the computer lab included in this space. The
current layout does not lend itself well for large or small groups to work. We are proposing
that we expand this space to allow for more open areas with moveable shelves that can
allow for large classroom groups and community groups to meet but also have the
flexibility to allow for some smaller areas for small groups to work. Having the computer lab
in a separate space would allow for classrooms to be using this space at same time other
classes are in IMC without interrupting one another. Having updated shelving that is
moveable would allow us to move these as needed to create different spaces as needed.
6. General Information:
Two other similar schools have updated their IMC which include spaces that allow for both
large and small group work. They also include furniture that is moveable and has built in
storage. We are proposing that the school IMC be updated to include these same types of
features. We have included pictures of those IMCs to show the types of features that we
would like to see included at our school.
7. Summary:
Having an inviting space that is functional both for school purposes and community events
is desired. Our current IMC space lacks both the space and the aesthetically pleasing
environment that we would like to have for our students and community groups. Although
we are doing the best with the space we have, we know that with an expanded and
remodeled space we could be offering so much more for our students.
8. Project Outcomes:
a. Demonstrate enhanced student learning opportunities.
b. Keep track of the number of community events using this space.
