St. Johns Elementary School

St. Johns has a rich history, but in order to understand it, you have to explore a little more. First look into the school's history and the process of creation through where it is, when it was built, and more.

 

Next talk with the students who went to the school until the 1950s and see what they thought of their time there

 

Then experience the space for yourself by looking around the building at the exterior and interior of the schoolhouse.

 

Once you understand the space a little better you will understand why large windows are so important to space, but explore the significance of light in St. Johns.

 

Finally, you need to know where the building and the community are going in the future. What are they hoping to achieve with the school today?
