The Process
Case Study
Being a force for change requires mighty determination. Teacher Katherine Winick’s abundance in that department – and her clear need for better student collaboration options, makerspace and classroom storage – helped her win the 2022 dancker ReImagine Your Classroom Contest.
Mrs. Winick’s grand prize was a wall-to-wall classroom furniture overhaul by contest co-sponsors dancker (interiors integrator) of New Jersey and Smith System (classroom furniture). The annual contest was open to K–12 schools in N.J. with over 125 students. The goal, said Mary Lynn Kearns with dancker, is to create better learning experiences for deserving students and teachers.
