Facilities

Teachers discussed the challenges and opportunities that the need for more space and better use of our facilities will bring. Having learned of the current negotiations regarding the use of the Ursuline campus, teachers raised a number of issues. While the “Quad” might be needed for classes, there are reasons why teachers felt that sharing classrooms on our own campus might be preferable. Not only will it be expensive to outfit Quad classrooms with necessary technology, it will also feel remote to students and teachers. We might generate more unity and camaraderie among the new CN community by doubling up in classrooms. Teachers wondered about the possible use of the Retreat Center. Teachers also expressed flexibility and interest in scheduling a few classes to meet during an evening or a zero period—or of combining top students for lecture style classes in order to ease the burden on room use during the day.
