To educate and inspire students to pursue career pathways which create the built environment.
2021 Project Problem Statement
INTRODUCTION:
Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs have become increasingly popular as part of high school curriculum due to their proven history of preparing students for filling both current and future job demands. The CREATE Advisory Board invites proposals for the creation of a new, single-room CTE “Building of the Future” on your high school campus. The building must house a CTE program of your team’s choosing that best fills a need at your school while meeting the following requirements:
- The building footprint shall not exceed 2,500 square feet and must be located on or near your high school campus.
- The building shall be single-story and is limited in height to 25’ maximum. A mezzanine may be included at each team’s discretion provided accessibility is provided for all potential building users.
- The building design should blend with the existing architectural vernacular on the campus (i.e. materials and design intent should be similar to other buildings). Providing a design that is a dramatic departure from the existing campus vernacular will result in disqualification.
- The project budget is assumed to be covered by district bonds. Cost estimates are not required.
- The building should include all functions necessary to be a self-contained area of learning for all components of your chosen CTE program. This may include but is not limited to:
- Collaborative and/or individual learning spaces, Technology infrastructure (audio/video, computer lab/docking stations, etc.), Shop/lab space including any required exhaust and plumbing systems, Storage, Restroom facilities, Up to 1,000 square feet of outdoor space.
