George Wythe Reimagined
As we prepare for building a new George Wythe High School, family and community engagement will be an essential part of determining the design, focus, and overall objectives and purpose of the new school, including whether it will be themed as an Arts High School or STEM/STEAM High School.
Wythe Reimagined Engagement Goals
- George Wythe students, families, staff, and community members receive timely and up-to-date information on the new school design and planning process.
- A diverse group of stakeholders are engaged and know how to share their opinions and ideas.
- Extensive feedback is provided to help determine the Passion4Learning theme: Arts or STEM.
- Extensive feedback is provided to determine exactly what the designated “community space” should be (e.g., community health clinic, satellite Welcome Center, etc.).
- Extensive feedback is provided regarding other design elements (“look” of the school, specific layout adjustments to the prototype, etc.).
Wythe Reimagined Community Meeting Schedule
