Austin Independent School District builds 21st Century STEAM classrooms with Virco in minutes

Austin Independent School District faced the challenge of furnishing a new middle school built for 21st Century STEAM and project-based learning. The district needed flexible, adaptable furniture from Virco that could support multiple teaching styles, incorporate technology, and allow for easy reconfiguration to facilitate student collaboration.

Virco provided a solution with its PlanSCAPE program furniture, including Sage Series chairs and stools, ZUMA Series ZHEX student desks, and nesting tables. This furniture allowed spaces to be quickly rearranged for individual, small group, or large group work, enhancing the collaborative nature of the STEAM curriculum. The principal reported being very pleased with the durability and effectiveness of the Virco furniture, noting it provided the flexible workspace needed for project work and that the post-installation service was exceptional.
