With the goal of helping schools and/or districts to move their thinking forward, and thus take maximum advantage of the opportunities afforded by a new school design project, New Vista Design’s educational visioning process provides a targeted, sequential and thorough exploration of 21st century educational goals as connected to facility design priorities and possibilities. New Vista works closely with school leadership and key stakeholders to plan and facilitate a series of customized, highly participatory and engaging workshops that explore areas of focus determined to be most essential to each school’s design and visioning needs.

​
