Building on the successful 2008 School Design Institute in Austin, TX, and in partnership with the Texas Association of School Boards, AAF is conducting a second School Design Institute with four of the largest school districts in Texas: Amarillo ISD, Ysleta ISD; Irving ISD; and Keller ISD. The districts are facing supporting green design, community involvement, incorporating archeological sites, transportation, prototype buildings, and partnering with local community colleges. The 4 districts will meet in Austin in early September for three days with a resource team made up of architects, planners, and landscape architects to work through their specific issues and incorporate the design process into the building process.
