Frisco Independent School District (FISD), located just north of Dallas, Texas, embarked on a mission to create a true 21st Century school where students could have the freedom to explore how and where they learn best. Through a collaborative visioning process, they imagined a learning environment that empowered students and teachers with the flexibility to work in various group sizes, moving beyond the limitations of traditional classrooms. Through a forward-thinking design approach in collaboration with Stantec Architects, a leading firm in school design, they crafted a school that emphasizes mobility, flexibility, and transparency. The result is Minett Elementary, an adaptable, future-ready learning center that leverages folding glass doors and dynamic furniture to give kids the opportunity to learn according to their individual needs.

What Our Customers Have to Say
West Valley College - Case Study
The design team specified NanaWall’s HSW60 Single Track Sliding System as the solution for a transparent, segmented, interior division that required no floor track and a unique docking bay for the panels.
Palo Alto Children's Library - Case Study
At this historic children’s library in Palo Alto CA, a NanaWall SL45 system aptly links the “Secret Garden” exterior with the multipurpose room interior allowing in natural light, fresh air and creating flexible space.
"The NanaWall system takes advantage of a fine climate much of the year and accommodates groups of 100 or more children for popular story hours. The south orientation is dealt with by the use of low-e glass."
