Make Educated Decisions to Encourage Safe School Design

May 27, 2025

The American Institute of Architects New Jersey Chapter’s Safe Schools Task Force created this introductory video to draw attention to the timely and important topic of designing safe and welcoming schools in New Jersey. Our objective is to share national best practices in K-12 schools and show how they can help local communities to meet their schools’ health, safety, and welfare (wellness) needs.

New Jersey architects’ strategies for designing and renovating schools aim to protect building occupants and create highly successful learning environments through innovative design solutions integrated with safety systems, physical security, and wellness practices.
