A Brief Summary
The Future Looks Extraordinary is a fundraising campaign that was created to complete Phase Two of our campus renovation. This phase focuses on the buildout of the Mozart building. We remodeled the first and second floors and are preparing the third floor as a multi-purpose room for future expansion. This fall, we relocated our Middle School to the Mozart building, and students in all grades have begun enjoying the incredible space.
In addition to the gym, the Mozart building hosts the following:
-
Four new classrooms and a breakout space for the second-floor classrooms
-
Middle School Science Lab
-
Rothner Family Student Union (housing our lunchroom and providing a small group work space)
-
Walder Innovation Lab
-
Kitchen and Food Lab
-
Beit Midrash Katan, which will also serve as a multi-purpose space
-
Middle School Student Support Services classroom
-
Middle School offices and security reception for special events
-
Additional bathrooms and a remodeled bathroom/locker room located adjacent to the gym
-
Third-floor multi-purpose space
