Combination Schools
Princeton Middle/High School
The campus features a variety of differentiated learning spaces, including double-sized learning studios, technology hubs for groups of 8 to 12 students and breakout rooms called Think Tanks. A collaborative effort involving Fanning Howey and a local Architect of Record resulted in an innovative and efficient new building. The Fanning Howey-designed building systems are part of an energy reduction initiative that has saved the school 40.7 percent on energy costs compared to existing code.
