The new building planned for the magnet Carver Center for Arts and Technology is moving forward, with plans to start the construction process come spring.  In my story today, I share some of the details from the presentation by the architect (DC-area Grimm + Parker) last night. 

For the curious, the entire presentation, including some drawings depicting layout, is here.

The school board approved the building for LEED certification, so a number of green-building options are being explored.  Among them is the use of natural daylight, which, interestingly enough, fosters better learning (and student performance) -- if done right, the architect said.
