Summary
editDescriptionCrow Island School (8626471252).jpg | Crow Island School in Winnetka, a national landmark (1940). Superintendent of Winnetka Carleton W. Washburn developed what he called the Winnetka Plan, an effort to emphasize progressive education. In 1937, the town school board decided to replace Morace Mann School with a new building. It was intended to be a "dream school", although funds were somewhat limited coming out of the Great Depression. The school's furniture was provided by the Illinois Crats Project, part of the Works Project Administration; WPA funds also assisted in construction. Crow Island School was the first zoned by age groups, clustering wings based on grade levels. The school was an immediate sensation when it was completed in 1940, heralded both by educators and architects. The American Institute of Architects presented it an award that year for its excellence in elementary school design. In 1956, it was named the 12th most significant building (1st among schools) in the past 100 years in an Architectural Record poll. It won the AIA 25 Year Award in 1971. The school's jungle gym is reportedly the first in the country. |
