NSU Mako Magazine Fall 2023

30 A NEW R.E.E.F. FOR SHARKS Each academic building on the NSU University School campus has an innovation lab, and each classroom and curriculum contributes to the innovation mindset. But there is also great value in collaboration between all grades. Excitement is building around the R.E.E.F., an innovation hub where all our Sharks can go for Robotics, Exploration, Experimentation, and Fabrication. Construction starts this summer. HORTICULTURE HUB Just outside the science and research complex lies our horticulture hub. Here, fresh vegetables are distributed each Friday from rows of potager plots. An aqua- culture atrium fills a patio nook. The Lichtenfeld Family Butterfly Garden and Vivarium abuts a play area. ARTISTIC EXPRESSION Our AutoNation Center of the Arts is the home base for USchool’s speech and debate teams and performing arts troupes. All students have opportunities to perform on the main stage and explore the inner workings of backstage concepts. Music rooms; studios for art, photography, graphic design, and video production; and visual exhibits prompt self-discovery, creativity, skills development, and enrichment. R.E.E.F.
