Ehrman Crest小学和中学项目试图将学习场所当作儿童博物馆来设计。最终的成果是一座全新类型的学校，激活了每一处空间的学习潜力，为学生的教育旅程提供了独一无二的场所。

Ehrman Crest Elementary and Middle School is a learning space that dares to explore what can happen when learning spaces are designed more like children’s museums. The result is an entirely new type of school, one that activates learning everywhere and gives students unparalleled agency to curate their educational journey.

项目伊始，Seneca Valley校区的设计者便开始了将学校空间设计为儿童博物馆的尝试，探索PK12的环境是否能使学习空间变得更引人注目、与学生的联系更加密切、能够更好的帮助学生获得成功。设计者希望这种对儿童博物馆形式的模拟能够为学生创造更有意义的学习空间和学习体验。为达到此目的，他们清楚的认识到这需要脱离传统的校舍设计，因为传统的校舍是为了常规的学习模式所设计的。

From the genesis of this project, Seneca Valley School District set out to explore if PK12 environments could become more compelling, relevant, engaging and successful if they emulated children’s museums. The hope was this emulation would create a more rewarding and empowered learning experience for students. There was clear recognition this would require a departure from traditional school buildings that are often designed in ways that dictate learning.
