Martins Mill ISD Portable Classroom

Martins Mill ISD in Martins Mill, Texas, received expansion funding, which allowed the district to add a 1515-square-foot, double-classroom building with restrooms to its campus. They chose to relocate their existing computer lab, which had overgrown its space in the school, to the new environment designed to accommodate it. The second classroom will house a mini-lab for their in-school suspension (ISS) and credit recovery programs.

The administrators were able to repurpose a vacant tennis court on the school grounds to install the portable classrooms. The building was arranged with the entrance and windows facing north, which wisely reduced heat gain from the Texas sun.
