    School Specialty and the College Football Playoff Foundation: Orange Center Elementary Media Center Makeover

    School Specialty® and the College Football Playoff Foundation® (CFPF) share a common goal to improve educator resources and provide children with better learning opportunities. This mission is supported by both organizations through CFPF’s Extra Yard for Teachers® program. This time, we took our tools to Orange Center Elementary in Florida for a modern media center makeover!

    Orange Center Elementary is a K-5 school in the Orange County Public School District. In their vision to produce successful students, they aim to “lead students to success with the support and involvement of families and the community.” School Specialty and CFPF are proud to help them achieve this mission and accomplish their five goals:

    • Intense Focus on Student Achievement
    • High-Performing and Dedicated Team
    • Safe Learning and Working Environment
    • Efficient Operations
    • Sustained Community Engagement

    The new media center marks the 48th makeover collaboration between School Specialty and CFPF. Since 2015, our partnership has completed learning environment upgrades in 32 school districts across 13 states, with more on the way!

    School Specialty and our Projects by Design® experts worked with the school to design a space that better supports their needs and drives outcomes. Our goal is always to complement the school’s style of teaching and learning with a contemporary, welcoming space and flexible seating options from our Classroom Select® proprietary furniture line. This new learning space will inspire teachers and students to collaborate, learn, and grow, and is just one more step in School Specialty’s mission of Transforming More Than Classrooms.
