Dallas ISD Taps SHW for New High School Campus Design
Putting a collegiate spin on traditional high school education, Dallas-based SHW Group designed the Kathlyn Joy Gilliam Collegiate Academy for Dallas Independent School District’s early college program.
“In the beginning, we sat down with DISD’s teachers, principal, students and a facilitator to ask the ‘what if’ questions,” Konrad Judd, SHW principal and lead designer in the North Texas studio, tells Texas Construction. “It was a unique process. We also partnered with Cambridge, which is full of experienced educators, to talk about the facility and the educational delivery.”
