尼爾數學與科學學院的建立標志著青少年教育領域的一次重大變革，象征著驕傲與力量。北芝加哥學區獲得了艾伯維公司提供的4000萬美元的變革性資助。北芝加哥是芝加哥地區一個獨特的黑人和棕色人種聚居的郊區城市，長期以來面臨投資不足的問題。這座五層建筑設有運動場、戶外學習空間以及促進中學生和教職工團結的集中節點。其垂直設計不僅提供了社區景觀視野，還引入了充足的自然光線。色彩斑斕的外觀和雙層漸變立面彰顯了多樣性，為教育空間樹立了新標桿，同時營造出積極向上的學習氛圍，促進包容性。

The Neal Math + Science Academy is a game changer in education for youth, symbolizing pride and strength. The School District of North Chicago received a transformative $40 million grant from AbbVie. North Chicago, a unique black and brown suburban city in Chicagoland, has faced disinvestment for too long. The five-story building features a sports field, outdoor learning spaces, and centralized nodes promoting togetherness for middle school students and staff. Its verticality offers neighborhood views and ample natural light. The colorful exterior and double gradient fa?ade celebrate diversity and promote inclusivity by setting a new standard for educational spaces, while encouraging an active learning atmosphere.

該設計由重要社區參與活動引領，旨在更好地了解社區需求。團隊與北芝加哥家庭進行了深入交流，包括父母及孩子們。在這些互動中，團隊發現社區感到被忽視，他們渴望被看見，也希望能夠看到他人。這一發現激發了建造一座垂直學校的構想，每層樓代表一個時間階段，并對應不同年級。隨著學生在每個年級中的成長，他們在城市中的可見度逐步提升，與北芝加哥之間也愈發緊密聯系。這使得該校成為北芝加哥最高建筑，并成為社區的重要燈塔。

The design was led by significant community engagement efforts to better understand the community's needs. The team met with families of North Chicago, including both parents and children. Through this engagement, it became clear that the community felt invisible. They wanted to be seen and to see. This inspired the idea of a vertical school where each floor represents a passage in time and marks a different school grade. As students progress through each grade, they gain more visibility within the city limits, and a stronger connection to North Chicago. This makes it the tallest building in North Chicago, serving as a beacon for the community.

項目實施過程中面臨挑戰，即需在現有學校正常上課期間進行設計與施工。在尊重學校傳統和歷史方面，體育館得以保留，這需要精心規劃與協調。新的設計既要保留舊建筑歷史元素，又要融入現代元素，以滿足未來需求。在保護與創新之間取得平衡是一項關鍵挑戰，而最終設計則兼顧過去并為未來創造前瞻性的教育環境。

The challenge of the project was designing and constructing the building while the existing school remained in session. To honor the school's history and legacy, the gymnasium was preserved. This required careful planning and coordination. The new design emerged from the need to maintain the historical aspects of the old structure, while integrating modern elements for the future. Balancing preservation with innovation was a key challenge, resulting in a design that respects the past while providing a forward-looking educational environment.

尼爾數學與科學學院決定在現有建筑旁邊建設新設施，因為他們意識到大多數學生都是步行上學。因此，新設計通過保持原址來鼓勵步行，從而減少對停車及汽車使用的依賴。

Neal Math and Science Academy decided to build the new facility adjacent to the existing building, recognizing that most students walk to school. By maintaining the location, the new design encourages walking and reduces the emphasis on parking and car usage.

設計團隊特別打造了一系列供社區使用功能性的元素，以促進聯系和可達性。其中包括為北芝加哥社區合作伙伴設立專用房間、學習樓梯及餐飲公共空間。此外，還有戶外廣場、休閑運動場以及學校與住宅區之間設置綠化緩沖區。這些設施為開展各類社區活動提供寶貴場所，加強了學校與周邊社區之間的聯系。

The design team created programmatic elements on the ground specifically for community use, fostering connection and accessibility. This includes a dedicated room for the North Chicago Community Partners, the Learning Stair, and the dining commons. Additionally, there are outdoor plazas, a recreational sports field, and a green space buffer between the school and the residential areas. These features provide valuable spaces for community activities, enhancing the bond between the school and the surrounding neighborhood.
