West Lake Middle School embodies the Humble district’s goal of creating a middle school in a newly developed community that uses the concepts of Next Generation Learning Environments’ collaborative and enhanced learning spaces. The design incorporates these attributes with innovative technologies to create a more productive, enjoyable, and secure learning experience for students and faculty.

Each level of the three-level facility holds one grade with its own administrator and counselor. The classrooms are designed to be not only fun and engaging for students, but also functional, secure, easily managed, and personalizable for the teachers and staff. Each learning environment was designed with the intent and flexibility to provide every opportunity for collaborative learning.

The striking mix of glass, steel, and masonry juxtaposed with the natural forest that envelops the school is a stimulating sight; daylight harvesting and optimized energy-performance MEPT Systems enhance efficiency.

West Lake Middle School is a technologically forward landmark nestled in a densely wooded neighborhood that sets a benchmark for future development in the area.
