Little Rockets, Shooting Stars

The adaptive reuse of the historic New Haven High School has created a new home for the district's Prekindergarten program. What was once warehouse and shop area space is now a colorful learning environment. Playful imagery and colors explore the school's space exploration theme, especially in the frescoes of astronauts and planets that adorn the halls. In the classrooms, furnishings and casework are scaled to meet the ergonomic needs of young children.
