All Access Locker Room Tour
The need for all-access facilities to support students in educational environments is prevalent for school districts and the design professionals that serve them. How do we as public education administrators and design professionals meet these needs while ensuring safety and security for all users? Long Beach USD has one completed facility that meets these needs, with another planned to open in the future. Join A4LE’s Southern California Chapter for an informative tour and presentation of these ground-breaking projects. We will tour Keller Middle School’s new modern locker room that serves students of all gender identities and expressions, students with disabilities who require the assistance of a caregiver of a different gender and students who desire privacy for any number of reasons. This completed locker room is part of a new, air conditioned 10,000-square-foot building that includes a fitness room with new exercise equipment and modern AV system and a dance studio that doubles as a high-tech classroom. This tour will be followed by a case study presentation outlining how Long Beach USD’s team navigated their stakeholders through this important project, as well as a similar project at Wilson Aquatics Center, currently in the design phase (Sara is this accurate?). Notably, Wilson’s new aquatics center will include an outdoor pool, spectator bleachers and a modern locker room with an all-gender area and separate, single-gender spaces designated for male or female students. Space is limited, secure your spot soon!
