Transforming Spaces

Building the Future of Learning at TAS

Transforming Spaces is an initiative focused on re-imagining key student and community spaces across our campus. This effort is part of our continued commitment to ensuring that every space at TAS reflects the excellence, care, and creativity we want for our students. Guided by our Strategic Plan, the Master Plan, and the evolving needs of our learners, we are re-imagining several key areas of our campus to better support the way our students and community live and learn—now and into the future.​

This is only the beginning. Transforming Spaces is the first step in a broader, longer-term vision. As we continue this work, we’ll be entering into deeper conversations around academic program needs, teaching and learning environments, and how our physical campus can better reflect the future of education at TAS.​

This work will be supported by both school resources and philanthropy, and we look forward to sharing more and collaborating in the months ahead.

PROJECT 1: Lower School Cafeteria and Community Room
PROJECT 1: Lower School Cafeteria and Community Room
Fueling Learning, Strengthening Community

A new Lower School Cafeteria and Community Room designed to serve our youngest learners with warmth, independence, and wellness in mind—complete with two flexible meeting spaces to support connection across our school community. This facility will be designed to be far more than a dining hall—it will be a vibrant, dynamic space where students build community, develop lifelong healthy habits, and foster independence in an environment tailored specifically to their needs.​

The Lower School Cafeteria will be built into the ground floor of the Winston Wong Tech Cube.​

In addition to being a vital space for our Lower School students during the day, the cafeteria will also serve as a multi-purpose venue for a variety of events, meetings, conferences, and community gatherings. Its flexible design will make it a central location for the broader TAS community, supporting the School's mission to bring together students, families, and employees in a unified environment.

 
 
PROJECT 2: Middle School Playground and Gathering Space
PROJECT 2: Middle School Playground and Gathering Space
A Space to Play, A Place to Belong

A new dedicated Middle School Play Ground and Gathering Space, purpose-built to support the physical and social-emotional needs of early adolescents in a vibrant, age-appropriate environment.

The creation of a dedicated Middle School outdoor playground and space will be designed specifically for our Middle School students to enjoy play, relaxation, and social interaction. ​

This space will be a hub of for our Middle School students.​

Located just next to the new Lower School Cafeteria and Community Room, this area will be specifically tailored to meet the needs of our Middle School students, fostering both their physical well-being and their social connections in a fun, modern environment they’ll be eager to spend time in.

 

PROJECT 3: Welcome Lobby
PROJECT 3: Welcome Lobby
Where Every Welcome Reflects our Values

A redesigned Welcome Lobby that reflects who we are as a school––student-centered and committed to innovation and care from the moment someone walks through our doors.

The welcome lobby will be more than an entry point—it will be a space of welcome, pride, and belonging, where students feel energized, families feel proud, and every guest instantly sees and feels what makes TAS exceptional.​

With purposeful design elements like light, color, student work, and flexible gathering spaces, the lobby will become more than a pass-through. It will be a place where students connect, hang out, and start their day with energy and confidence.

 

 

 

 

 

PROJECT 4: Office of Learning
PROJECT 4: Office of Learning
A Home for Collaboration and Innovation

A redesigned Office of Learning that brings academic leadership into clearer view, better supports collaboration, and aligns with our values as a dynamic and forward-thinking learning institution.

We are re-imagining our Central Administrative Offices into the Office of Learning––a vibrant, collaborative hub where leadership, innovation, and community will come together.

The Office of Learning will dissolve traditional boundaries between "administration" and "academics," creating dynamic spaces where ideas are shared, connections are built, and learning leadership is visible and accessible to all.​

Open collaboration zones, co-working spaces, flexible team areas, and smaller offices will support creativity, innovation, and accessibility in ways that reflect the future of education.

Single Testimonial

“ Spaces shape how we communicate, collaborate, and innovate. There is a deep connection between space and experience, meaning that TAS design is not just about physical structures and framework but also about creating an environment that fosters learning and growth. ”
