Secret Door

The concept for the entrance door to Mr. Clark's classroom comes from the children's cartoon, Scooby Doo. The cartoon often has secret passageways and hidden rooms that the characters find on their way to solving a mystery. At the end of the second floor hallway of the Ron Clark Academy classroom building, you get a view of the 'library' at the end of the hall. As you enter into the space, it looks like a library right out of a haunted mansion , complete with a fireplace, wood wall paneling, a velvet sofa, and, of course, fully functional library shelves. As you rotate the torchlight on the wall, suddenly the bookshelves open and behind them is Mr. Clark's room.
