Lowell Brune Elementary School, a modern solution to the needs of the Kansas City community, replaces two smaller, older elementary schools with a spacious, state-of-the-art facility. Situated on a larger site, the new school offers ample room for bus and car loading zones, expanded parking, and well-equipped playgrounds and athletic fields.

Welcoming Design: Visitors are greeted by a vibrant two-story metal panel entry, setting a welcoming tone right from the start. This entrance leads to a secure check-in system, ensuring the safety of all students, staff, and visitors.

Key Features:

• Main Corridor: The spacious main corridor is a hub of activity, featuring easy access to the media center, a grand stairway, a multipurpose cafeteria, a gymnasium, and an art room.
• Grand Stairway & Elevator: These connect the two levels of classrooms, which can be securely separated from the rest of the school during public evening events.
• Gymnasium & Cafeteria: Designed with safety in mind, these spaces double as a storm shelter capable of accommodating the entire school population. A large glass door allows for versatile configurations of these gathering areas.
• Flex Room: Nestled within the academic wing, the Flex Room provides a versatile space for various educational activities and projects.

Innovative Design for Community Engagement: The design of Lowell Brune Elementary School emphasizes not only educational excellence but also community engagement. The secure and flexible layout ensures that the school can serve as a community hub, hosting events and activities in a safe and inviting environment.
