Welcome to the first installment of our new Ed Talks series—dedicated to telling the stories of our PK-12 clients and how they're enriching students' education in their local communities.

What happens when a high school is designed around real-world learning, student passion, and community input? In this episode, Treanor PK-12 Education principal Scott Dangel talks with Rebecca Albert-Vollrath, Director of Career and Innovation at Weld RE-5J School District, about the transformation of Roosevelt High School into a fully integrated Career and Technical Education (CTE) campus.

They explore how listening to the community reshaped the project, how CTE can benefit all students—not just those headed straight to the workforce—and what it means to design with a mission as your top priority.

Topics covered:
 • What “fully integrated CTE” really looks like
 • How Roosevelt’s design connects pathways, staff, and students
 • Lessons learned from designing flexible, future-ready spaces
 • Advice for school leaders considering CTE
