Meteor Success Story
Building Learning Spaces for a New Generation in Sauk Centre

The Challenge The facilities of Sauk Centre Public Schools were showing their age. While the elementary school was updated in the 1990s, the middle and high schools dated back more than a half century. With growing enrollment and a clear desire for more flexible, collaborative environments, district leaders knew it was time to reimagine their schools for the next generation of learners. The Solution When they set out to modernize their facilities, district leaders envisioned much more than a basic facelift. Meteor’s design team worked closely with administrators and teachers to ensure that each space reflected how learning actually happens today. The Impact Feeling comfortable in their new spaces, teachers are reporting that students now work together more naturally, learning communication, conflict management, and problem-solving skills that extend beyond academics. The new spaces also support the preferred learning styles of different students — whether they want to sit, stand, or use a stool with a bit of wobble in it so they can “get their squiggles out.” That choice in flexible furniture is consistent across each campus, so students can benefit from it wherever they go.
