Lincoln Public Schools’ Post

Election Day. While not a Presidential year, an important year for Westonka Public Schools. A Yes Westonka vote today means: - Safer, more secure schools. - Modernizing and improving efficiency of mechanical and electrical equipment and systems. - Expansion of vocational programs for high demand, good paying jobs for our youth, including machining, nursing/emergency response programs, and a carpentry program. - New and improved athletic facilities for our student athletes. IMO this is the best investment we can make. Educating our youth, keeping them safe, and improving their (and our) futures. GO VOTE!

How has the design of schools changed and why? What can we expect when we walk into today's school, what's important now? Jason Burnside tackles these questions and more as he sits down with @dubaieye1038fm #eyeoneducation

Green Washing: Electric school buses: 1. Do nothing to address the fundamental defect that roads make it unsafe to children to walk and bike to school. 2. Do nothing to reduce the energy burnt to move 2-tons to move a child. Following the 1973 Oil Embargo government car-centrix planning in the US, Sweden, and Denmark diverged. From the same per person safety and energy consumption in 1973 Sweden and Denmark worked to kill 400% fewer bike riders and pedestrians, and consume 60% less oil per person than US government policies. US policies continue sprawl and Green Washing like electric school buses instead of addressing the fundamental need to make walkable and bikeable cities. Radically unlike its neighboring cities, Palo Alto, CA made their streets safe and 56% of students bike to school.

The progress that has been made over the course of the last few years has been nothing short of incredible and it's thanks to this partnership between O-A-K and Godfrey-Lee. Check out some of these really neat spaces that students get to be in every day. #construction #education #constructionindustry #renovation #highschool #learning

An alarming BBC Panorama documentary, “Britain’s Crumbling Schools” highlighted the deteriorating physical state of many British schools (aired January 2024). Not confined to the RAAC fiasco, a high number of education buildings across the country, including outdated temporary classrooms, are falling into extreme states of disrepair, way below the standard that is considered ‘fit for purpose’. A supplier of temporary classroom and sports hall buildings to the education sector, Smart-Space is also known for its permanent building solutions that have resolved many space and environment issues for more than three decades.

This thoughtful proposition aims to refocus the educational debate on what truly matters: the future of our children.

There is minimal (if any) room for adjustment to space assignment, so operational loss-of-use can be even more difficult to recover from than physical property damage in schools and universities. Schedules rule and disruptions to what is “normal" rack up significant costs and immeasurable harm. ACR fully understands how even one day of displacement can sting with a cascading effect on students, staff, and costs. As your restoration partner, ACR has a commitment to keep schedules running, maintain space available for use, and have a minimal impact on your operational budget. The only way to achieve this is to plan for it well ahead of any disastrous event. Learn more here: https://bit.ly/4df9QYO #schooldisaster #schoolemergency #universities
