SHP Attends Dedication and Celebration of Dayton Regional STEM School

On Thursday, November 21st, 2013, the Dayton Regional STEM School hosted a new building dedication ceremony in conjunction with a 5-year anniversary of the school’s opening. The public school, located in Kettering, Ohio, serves grades 6-12 with a focus on Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. While the Dayton Regional STEM School is one of 12 of its kind in the state of Ohio, it is the first design/build project to receive Ohio Facilities Construction Commission (OFCC) funding as its first STEM project.

SHP developed the new Phase II of the building with a program of requirements that included 8 classrooms, 2 flexible, open classrooms, 2 dedicated science labs with support space, 3 dedicated project labs including an engineering bar, five open, flexible break out areas with soft seating, a wellness room to support PE activities and offices and conference rooms.

Our role is to help the transition team determine what the new school will look like 10 years from now: curriculum to campus life, enrichment to internships, technology to teachers, student body to service. We’ve done that by leading a futurecasting exercise to imagine what the future may hold for Mercy McAuley, and what steps the school must take now to realize that future.
