Best classroom designs

Ila Gordon, Print Managing Editor • Jan 24, 2023

  • An English-theater combo classroom has possibly the most uncommon design in the school. An entirely black-colored space with ascending desks that face a stage-like area is the perfect set up for theater students to learn.

  • Hidden in the back of room 192 are rows of fairy lights and a ring of stage lights. This uncommon, yet interesting sight in an English classroom is a unique way to spice up a space!

  • In room 168, the ceiling is decorated with colorful, whimsical origami animals. These creations are hung from the ceiling and add a fun, lighthearted atmosphere to the otherwise standard classroom!

  • The child development classroom is flowered with entertaining designs, colorful artwork and lots of fun activities for students and children to engage in. The classroom mimics a kindergarten classroom in that it includes miniature sized chairs, a colorful rug and cubbies.
