Kissimmee Charter Academy - Building

Building

KCA has 2 main buildings connected by a walkway. The first building, on the left contains classes for Pre-K to 1st Grade and also contains the nurse's office and 2 playgrounds, one for Pre-K and Kindergartenstudents and the other playground for the other grades. The middle area between the 2 buildings houses a HOPS garden (a.k.a. the Bus area), a field, and a shaded area that was built in 2008. The second building is called the Main Building and houses the grade 3-8 classrooms. The building contains the Main Office used for registration, volunteer hour submission, and etc. The second building also contains a Butterfly Garden, the Cafeteria, the Library, Computer Lab, teacher's lounge, basketball court, and soccer field withgoals. The basketball court, previously larger, was moved for construction of portables for music, art, and 2nd Grade classrooms, but the court has modified 7 feet rims to 10 feet rims(regulation size) and has also reduced from 4 basketball hoops to 2 baskeetball hoops and has a smaller overall size. There is also a fence in the portables area designed to prevent students from running into the lake (filled with alligators, as presumed by some Kindergarten rumor). There is a hole next to the bushes on the sideline of the soccer field that can be crawled under the barbed-wire fence to the lake.

Famous quotes containing the word building:

    The real dividing line between early childhood and middle childhood is not between the fifth year and the sixth year—it is more nearly when children are about seven or eight, moving on toward nine. Building the barrier at six has no psychological basis. It has come about only from the historic-economic-political fact that the age of six is when we provide schools for all.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    The mention of one apartment in a building naturally introduces an enquiry or discourse concerning the others: and if we think of a wound, we can scarcely forbear reflecting on the pain which follows it.
    David Hume (1711–1776)

    An island always pleases my imagination, even the smallest, as a small continent and integral portion of the globe. I have a fancy for building my hut on one. Even a bare, grassy isle, which I can see entirely over at a glance, has some undefined and mysterious charm for me.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
