1987 jury commentary

  • Does the building reflect the educational philosophy of the school program or the school system? Is this philosophy evident in the design?

  • Does the building fulfill the purpose for which it was intended? Does the plan convey a sense of order and focus?

  • Aesthetic considerations, including excitement, color, scale and details.
