Abstract

The mobilization of support data and documentation sufficient to give appropriate physical expression to the required functions of the new senior high school, in Green Bay, Wisconsin, is the objective of this report. The consultants have proceeded in two steps--(1) to identify the functions to be performed in the new high school by analyzing records, interviewing school officials, department heads, and other personnel, and submitting questions to the city-wide steering committee, and (2) to identify relationships of staff, equipment, and space for the performance of these functions. Areas dealt with include--(1) philosophy and objectives of education, (2) curriculum, (3) student activities and services, (4) curricular organization, (5) program of studies, (6) student body, (7) staff needs, (8) function relationships, (9) space allocations budget, and (10) proximity of functional areas. General facilities, instructional and administrative facilities, outdoor facilities and special considerations are discussed. Special considerations include--(1) visual openness, (2) corridors and circulation, (3) relocatable and movable walls, (4) carpeting, (5) exterior glass, (6) furniture and equipment, (7) toilets, (8) color and finishes, (9) illumination, (10) acoustics, (11) temperature, and (12) general considerations.
