PRLog -- St. Matthew's Episcopal Day School will be holding a groundbreaking ceremony for St. Matthew's Hall on June 4, 2013 at 8:30 am. The Vestry of St. Matthew's Church and the Board of Trustees of the Day School invite the public to attend the ceremony and the reception that follows.
Working together, the Parish and the Day School are constructing a new three story building with an underground gymnasium/multi-
purpose space that will replace the current buildings and playgrounds along Baldwin Ave. St. Matthew’s Hall will feature a state-of-the-
art Library, Maker Lab and meeting spaces to house the Sunday School and adult education meetings. On the second and third floors there will be 12 classrooms for students in Grades 4 to 8, including Music and Art studios and Science Labs. Head of School Mark McKee commented, “The design of the new learning spaces, including the Maker Lab, Science and Arts classrooms, reflects a focus on innovations in “STEAM” – the STEM disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, plus the Arts. This aligns our focus on the whole child with the latest research into 21st Century learning.”
