Thank you @A4LE_ntx for your continued support on our Senior Courtyard Renovation. Your generous award allows these student to see their visions become reality. Next year the majority of this project will be complete! #CTEmonth @RichardsonHS1 @RISD_CTE

Create fashion from Architectural Inspiration!

The RHS Architecture students "cultivated" community by redesigning underutilized spaces around Richardson. They presented their visions to the Mayor and RISD Admin. @RISD_CTE #RHSdreambig @RHS_Spotlight @RichardsonISD

At RHS, our CTE teachers are all about making real world connections & giving back to our community! @Ms_Bellone’s class made a difference with our mayor! #RISDDreamBig #RISDGreatness #EaglesElevate #RISDInsiders

A student made reel to showcase the new additions: we now have 11 new benches (including an outdoor classroom) and 2 new swings in the area that will be part of the sensory garden. We are already discussing what's next. Stay tuned! @RichardsonHS1 @RISD_CTE @RichardsonISD

@RichardsonHS1 Sr. Courtyard Update: Students laid out the locations of the benches prior to installation. A group of students volunteered their Saturday to help assemble the benches. We now have 11 benches including an outdoor learning space and 2 swings! @RichardsonISD

The RISD Bookmobile installation is complete! A few more touch ups and it will be ready for the exterior wrap. This is CTE! Every inch of this interior was designed, built, painted, and installed by students!! @RichardsonISD @RISD_CTE @RichardsonHS1

Art work is installed on the RISD Bookmobile. One more step to being road ready! Work based learning in Architecture. @RichardsonISD @RISD_CTE @RichardsonHS1

Also this week in Architecture students promoted the club during the Eagle Celebration and presented the bookmobile project to the new CTE teachers! @RISD_CTE @RichardsonHS1 @RichardsonISD

We want to send out a HUGE thank you to @A4LE_ntx for their continued support with the senior courtyard renovation. The students have won the "Student Impact Award" 3 years in a row, totaling $15,000 in grants with their video submissions. @RichardsonISD @RISD_CTE @RichardsonHS1

@RichardsonHS1 Architecture students are hard at work prepping the senior courtyard for the upcoming installation of swings, benches and an outdoor classroom space (see pic). Made possible in part by generous grants from @A4LE_ntx @RISD_CTE @RichardsonISD

The RISD Book Mobile is under construction! Students are working hard to get the shelving built and installed inside the bus. Stay Tuned... @RISD_CTE @RichardsonISD @RichardsonHS1 @risdpta #RISDCouncilofPTAsUsedBookFair

Yesterday Arch Design II took a trip to Stantec to tour the firm. They each presented their Q2 projects to the Architects and got valuable feedback that they will incorporate into the next phase. @RichardsonISD @RISD_CTE @stantec @RichardsonHS1

The RISD bookmobile has made it to campus and construction is about to begin. The senior who is in both practicum of Architecture and Manufacturing is project lead & explaining the plan to Principles of Architecture. Stay tuned… @RichardsonISD @RichardsonHS1 @RISD_CTE

Saturday morning layout and prototyping on the book mobile. @RichardsonISD @RichardsonHS1 @RISD_CTE

Architecture, Art, Manufacturing, and Tech Theater are teaming up to turn an old school bus into a mobile book mobile for the district. This is project based learning at its finest! The preliminary meeting was a huge success! @RichardsonISD @RichardsonHS1

Since Freshman year I have been asking Max to create things out of found objects in the classroom. From engineering to architecture he has always met my challenge. For his final senior project he designed a chair for me. @RISD_CTE @RichardsonHS1

Last night my students and I were invited to take part in the #empoweredwomeninstem empower girls panel discussion. We met some wonderful women and made lasting connections. It definitely filled our buckets. #womeninarchitecure @RichardsonISD @RichardsonHS1 @RISD_CTE @aiadallas
