Performing Art High School

Submittal for C.A.S.H competition 

The proposal for the highschool is designed in response to the needs of  Logan Heights and its high rate of high school dropouts. The program for the school is chosen based on the cultural and art interests of the neighborhood in order to decrease the high rate of crimes and increase pedestrian interaction between the school and the community. The art street is designed to connect a communal performance space to the school's open air theatre allowing for the street to be celebrated with the corresponding departments. Collaboration Pods are also important to the design to increase group studies and allow for an education system that encourages working in teams and sharing ideas.
