MIDDLE SCHOOL

Are you in the process of planning updates for your existing middle school outdoor areas? Perhaps planning a completely new middle school for a booming community? Whether the school is old or new, USA SHADE can help.

For over a quarter of a century, USA SHADE has worked with middle schools and other educational facilities to optimize their green space by installing permanent shade structures. Putting a shade structure in your middle school will give you the opportunity to provide an area for students to grow, learn and play. It can also set your school apart from the rest. While middle school students may not be playing on a playground during breaks, they still spend a lot of time out in the sun for lunch, sports, walking to class, and assemblies. From outdoor eating areas to the courtyards where they study and socialize, shade structures are essential in protecting kids from the sun’s harmful UV rays.

Using COVID-19 education stimulus funds for middle schools is a great way to ensure kids get back to school safely. If you have faced difficulties reopening because of space issues or you just need more areas where students can learn, socialize, and participate in activities, adding an outdoor shade structure may be the right answer. The federal COVID-19 stimulus package of 2020 allows schools to put funding toward health and safety upgrades to be able to safely allow students and faculty to return to in-person learning. Many schools can use this funding to build outdoor classrooms with shade structures.

In warmer climate states such as California, Texas, North Carolina, and South Carolina can provide outdoor learning all year long. Provide safety and comfort to middle school students by giving them an environment where they can spread out yet still work on collaborative projects that are essential to learning cooperative skills. Among the many COVID-19 education funding relief uses for middle schools, putting money toward versatile classroom space is one of the smartest options.

Our structures can be customized and come with many benefits, such as:

  • Room for social distancing.
  • Temperature reduction in shaded areas.
  • Protection from harmful UV rays.
  • ADA-accessible pathways and seating areas.
  • Integration of lighting, video, and audio into the shade structure.

Now is the time to get ready for next year as we continue to navigate the pandemic, and adding a new outdoor learning space will help get teens back into the classrooms.
