Schoolhouse of Quality

E-mail to a Friend Print this Page
At SHP Leading Design, we know that community involvement and support are the cornerstones of a successful school. By blending the science of research with the art of understanding school district needs, we developed the nationally recognized and award-winning Schoolhouse of Quality process.

For almost two decades, SHP has used the Schoolhouse of Quality process for nearly a billion dollars of projects, including technology planning, facility renovations, new facilities and entire master-planning efforts across the spectrum of educational levels (K-12 and higher education). This process has helped produce innovative designs, and has proven to be flexible in accommodating the changing needs and trends of school districts.

We understand that different school districts have varying needs of community engagement. So over the years we have customized our process to meet the specific engagement needs each district may have. The result is a broad range of possibilities for engaging your community, from intimate one-on-one interviews to community-wide forums using electronic voting.

Regardless of which approach we take to engage your community, you are guaranteed one thing: We lead with questions rather than answers, so the end result is a building that not only provides an exceptional learning environment for students, but also a facility in which the entire community can be proud.
