ABOUT THE PROJECT
Da Vinci Science is a Charter High School with a STEM focus. One of our new classes this year is Civil Engineering and Architecture, where 11th and 12th grade students learn the fundamentals of constructing residential and commercial structures. The most exciting part of this class, however, is our movable classroom project with Da Vinci RISE. Da Vinci RISE is one of our partner schools, whose focus is on catering to the individual circumstances of their students, many of whom are homeless or in the foster care system. For this project, our engineering class has the amazing opportunity to create a movable tiny classroom where Da Vinci RISE can hold tutoring, counseling, and other small meetings. We are working along side professional architects, engineers, and designers from Gensler, Houston/Tyner, and Oculus Light Studio to complete this project. We are extremely excited to begin this journey, and we hope that you enjoy seeing our progress along the way.
