ANDREW G. SCHMIDT MIDDLE SCHOOL

The school is comprised of academic and recreation areas adjacent to administrative offices. Use of glass, consolidation of building entries and separation of academic and public spaces contribute to building security, administrative supervision and student comfort.

Academic wings centered around the media center were designed to promote team teaching. The sky-lit, enlarged corridor at the entrance to classrooms provides additional large group space and access to computer resource and teacher planning rooms.

Instrumental and vocal music groups can play and sing to their hearts’ content without disruption to others in their acoustically sound rooms. Generous space allows for in-room instrument storage as well as portable risers.

A full regulation-size gym, with adjoining locker rooms, showers and coaches’ offices leaves a winning score for Fenton Area Public Schools. Bleacher seating accommodates 600 people and a complete sound system puts the finishing touches on the acoustically treated gym.
