Sullivan Middle School added fifth grade classes into the original Sullivan High School building which filled classrooms. Thanks to the generosity of the Sullivan Community Education Foundation the original high school library is now the HUB.
SMS Principal Nathan Ogle explained his request to transform the old library into a space for collaborative and creative use by students was filled beyond expectations. With the use of iPads and collaborative teaching between classes, students were exchanging ideas in the hallways and spare alcoves before while space was available in the previous high school library.
The remnants of the original computer lab line the walls of the old library, but the inside is updated with rearrangeable furniture that is both teacher and student friendly.
Thanks to a $12,000 grant from the Sullivan Community Education Foundation there is room and furniture for three classrooms that may be used for a variety of purposes.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
