We all want our kids learning in vibrant, green, healthy schools – in environments that excite curiosity, exploration and inspire achievement. But, in spite of our nation’s best intentions, we often fall short of those goals. Better, greener, more flexible facilities can seem like a distant dream for school administrators facing daily trade-offs between better facilities and a host of competing curricular, staff and financial pressures.

We don't have to make those tradeoffs anymore.

Can Frog buildings really improve test scores? High performance buildings like Frog translate directly into 26% faster learning rates, up to 18% improved test scores, improved wellness, and a decrease in lost school days from asthma and other air quality-related illnesses.  Frog buildings aren’t just better for students; they’re better for teachers seeking flexible, adaptable environments that support different teaching styles and activities. And they’re better for administrators looking for expandable facilities that can be repurposed over time without sacrificing usability, quality, or performance. 

How do I meet green guidelines and my bottom line? Frogs are 20 - 45% cheaper to build than traditional school buildings and, over the lifecycle, perform 40 - 50% better (70% better when you integrate additional renewable energy features). So, high performance actually means real money savings. Plus, achieving and exceeding LEED and CHPS performance standards is what our kit was designed to do.

Can I get a Frog building solution…yesterday? Frog buildings are about five times faster to design and build than their traditional counterparts; they’re typically ready for classes within six to seven months after we sign a contract. Our kit’s pre-engineered parts, our pre-approved architectural plans and just-in-time assembly ensure a level of predictability that is not found anywhere else. Since we’ve already done the hard work of designing, engineering, and securing most of the building entitlements, we can plan for assembly to occur over the summer months with ample time for classes to open in the Fall.

Will a Frog classroom building do teaching duty? An interactive web-based performance dashboard tracks the building’s energy performance and allows students to analyze how their actions impact natural and energy resources. And, each facility comes with a tailored User Guide and curriculum with suggestions for how to incorporate building elements and performance into daily lesson plans.

How do I test whether Frog could be a fit? It couldn’t be easier. All you need is one minute to fill out our questionnaire (coming soon) to provide one, or multiple site addresses and a rough description of a project size and scope. Once that’s done, we give you access to our Frog Configurator Kit, an easy to use design tool that lets you play with a variety of different Frog product configurations on a site and test out interior layouts that could fit your program. If it looks like it might be a good match, our Planning Team will work with you to tailor your space and site plans, specify product and performance goals, and refine pricing and schedule.
