Cedarhurst Elementary is a Kindergarten through Sixth Grade facility in an older, suburban neighborhood. The structure is configured in two, 2-story classroom wings, an activities wing, and an administration area with the library above and is organized by a 2-story central spine. The main exterior cladding uses brick masonry to bring richness, stability and tradition to its neighborhood and taps into people’s ideas and memories about what a school should be, it becomes an academic symbol as well as a functioning school.
