Green Mountain Valley School
Site Description
Waitsfield, Vermont
Building Area
5,500 sq. ft. Addition to the existing Farmhouse Building

To Be Completed
2007

 
 

The new Library and Day Student Center, which is an addition to the Farmhouse Building, will include a "state of the art" library, individual and group study areas, a "Smart Classroom", and a two-story day student center. With the entire building wired for WI-FI, this "well designed space will create an environment that reflects changes in technology, institutional priorities, and evolving teaching strategies".

The Unites States Green Building Council 's "Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design" (LEED) is a nationally accepted standard for sustainable building practices. With only three LEED certified buildings in Vermont, none of which are secondary schools, Bast & Rood and GMVS are striving to have this Library and Day Student Center be LEED certified.

GMVS is pursiuing their LEED credits through student-volunteered workgroups.
