Charles J. Caruso Jr. High School is located in Deerfield, IL. Charles J. Caruso Middle School serves over 500 students from the Deerfield and Riverwoods communities in Illinois. Caruso is successful because of its culture of caring and innovation. This culture embraces the social-emotional needs of the whole child while also operating under the best practices and cutting edge strategies in education. Innovation is the word we would also use to describe this project.
This school’s facilities implement purposeful design- all around. For their Hufcor operable partition systems they used multiple surfaces to maximize the usability of the space. Students will benefit from having multipurpose rooms, that are completely soundproof. While on the other side, strategically placed walltalkers are available for presentations, meetings and so on. This project is something we pride on, because we know how Hufcor operable partition system doors and panels promote creativity when it comes to room arrangements. The Deerfield community will enjoy these for many years to come.
