Since its completion in 2010, the William R. Anton Elementary School has been used by Los Angeles Unified School District as a prototype for small urban sites that accommodate 50-60 classrooms. Built on 3.2 acres of severely sloping topography the site presented many challenges. The campus was designed vertically, ranging from two to four stories throughout consisting of 51 classrooms, a library, multi-purpose center, cafeteria, health offices, playgrounds, ball fields, an Early Childhood Education Center and an underground parking garage, totaling over 100,000 square feet. The facility was constructed to meet the Collaborative for High-Performance Schools standards and includes features such as passive solar shading and recyclable metal panels.
