Vision 20/20: MS Science Rooms
November 8, 2017
The science classrooms at the Alden Middle School are past their useful lives. One of the many components of Proposition One of the ‘Vision 20/20’ Capital Project is renovating the outdated and well worn-out science classrooms at the middle school. A tour of the classroom by Science Teacher Mr. Matecki, showed that cabinet doors and shelves are in disrepair. The ceilings cannot support a projector being hung like most other classrooms now have in the district. Sinks in the room are also not up to standard as they are eroded creating drainage issues as well. The condition of the cabinets, sinks, and ceiling clearly show that the rooms need to be redone. Mr. Matecki says that the environment he teaches in doesn’t support modern initiatives and that the condition of the room is distracting the students.

I think this is a good video because it is not just for the high school it is for the middle too.

I agree that things need to be fixed. Even being in high school people still play with the knobs thinking something will come out. i love the rubber duck in the video.

The science rooms should get updated, when I was in 6th grade the rooms were very bad. To see that the rooms are going to be updated is good because the science teachers would have an easier time teaching and the students would have an easier time learning and doing the experiments.

The science classrooms were in rough shape 22 years ago when I was in 7-8 th grade science. It’s really sad that they haven’t been updated in over 30 years. I really hope this passes so my children will have better equipment to use and have better learning experiences when they are in Middle Schoolninnthe next few years.
