It is impossible not to notice the construction area as you enter Maclay's campus. Maclay School is in the middle of the most ambitious construction project in its history, and the signature building of the iTHINK Initiative will soon be going vertical. The Beck Family Research Center is up and running this year, hosting three of the Upper School Concentrations and a student research laboratory. The new Beck Family Innovation Center is getting ready to come out of the ground and will be up and running for the 2020-2021 school year.
Mr. Milford uses this extended cut podcast to go through the construction projects within the iTHINK Initiative and details the spaces and how they impact the curriculum and experience of our students. The links below are from various stages of the design process. We are excited to give you a glimpse into this exciting new space for the Maclay experience.
Construction Projects for 2018-2020:
The Beck Family Research Center is the new upcycled shipping container building next to the Webster Center and was opened in mid-2019.
