Why Project FROG™

"The stylish, portable classroom designs by Project FROG™ are far removed from the ugly rectangular trailers bogging down school campuses."

- AIArchitect, May 2006

In the US, over five million students are currently learning in temporary classrooms - that is one out of every five college students. By 2012, that number is expected to rise to one quarter of the total student population. There are more than 220,000 temporary classrooms currently in use throughout the United States. And most recently, in the Gulf Coast region, the need for viable academic spaces has been exacerbated by the destruction wrought by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

While administrators generally plan on utilizing temporary structures on a short-term basis, our research found that an incredible 76% remain in place three times longer than expected. More importantly, we found that there is a clear correlation between the built environment and the academic performance of students.

The physical structure of a building is critical for healthy and productive learning. Based on our research, Project FROG™ believes that a stylish building, flooded with natural light, high ceilings, clear sight lines, and easy access to the latest high-tech teaching tools, fosters creativity, encourages better student-teacher collaboration and ultimately inspires academic achievement.
