Eliminating the achievement gap in our lifetime.

Serving up to 550 kindergarten through fifth-grade students, the new two-story Rocketship Mosaic Elementary School was built by Enviroplex in partnership with Artik Art & Architecture and Launchpad Development Company. Located in San Jose, California, the approximately 21,500-square-foot building is a 130' x 80' back-to-back design with 8-foot-wide double-loaded interior corridors. The well-arranged interior spaces are comprised of administration and dedicated staff offices, classrooms for traditional curriculum, a multipurpose room with serving kitchen, boys’ and girls’ and staff multi-fixture restrooms and IDF data and storage spaces.

Results

Innovation is a core value for Rocketship Education, which encourages new ideas from its staff and students as well as its design professionals. By incorporating a Truth Wall in each classroom, the building has become a teaching tool: students can see the inner layers of construction materials and learn about the building systems around them. Living Walls, another innovative design element, feature lush green plants that produce high-quality indoor air and help students learn science through gardening. Eliminating the achievement gap so that every student isn’t restricted by a “destiny of demographics” is Rocketship Education’s mission; building facilities that support academic excellence is Enviroplex’s commitment to its educational customers.
