ProCare Therapy names Harvest Intermediate School as one of the ten best inclusively designed schools in the nation.
At Duet Resource Group, we believe in the power of design to create inclusive, welcoming environments that cater to the diverse needs of all learners. Some of our work at Harvest Intermediate School in DeForest, Wisconsin has garnered national attention for its pioneering approach to inclusive design, aligning with the most up-to-date educational practices.
A Community of Belonging Through Design
Our vision was to create a space where every student, regardless of their needs or abilities, feels valued and supported. To achieve this, we integrated special education classrooms within the general classroom layouts, ensuring that all students learn side by side, promoting an inclusive community spirit.
Flexibility and Sensory Spaces
Understanding the importance of adaptable learning environments, we introduced flexible seating arrangements and designated sensory spaces. These areas are designed to be inclusive and accessible for all students, fostering a sense of belonging and community.
Supporting Every Learner
Our commitment to inclusivity goes beyond physical accessibility; it's about creating environments that support the educational programs and practices that cater to every learner, not just those with disabilities. From the furniture we select to the spatial arrangements we implement, every decision is made with the goal of supporting and enhancing the learning experience for all.
We're proud to be at the forefront of designing educational spaces that not only meet current best practices but also pave the way for the future of inclusive education. The recognition of Harvest Intermediate School on a national level is a testament to our commitment to creating spaces where every student can thrive.
