School Photoblogging: George Moscone
Next up in our School Photoblogging Series is George Moscone ES
Last year's PPS annual meeting was held at Moscone ES. I went to the meeting with the intention of getting some snapshots of the BOE members in attendance and to meet some of the people I've come to know on-line.
While there I was also struck by the school. From the outside, the building looks very nondescript, effectively giving the sidewalk and neighbors a cold shoulder. But from the inside it is an entirely different story. Part of this inward facing architecture is this play structure located in the midst of the school. Inside and outside blend together to create a warm, safe, inviting world. Not seen in this picture is a central courtyard that really defines the space. Very interesting school, and most unexpected based on looking at the school from the street.

I just visited Moscone today! I was also struck by what a peaceful happy feeling you get once you are inside the atrium. The teaching staff is wonderfully collegial and cohesive, and they had great things to say about their 2nd-year principal, Susan Zielinski, who seems to be doing a fabulous job.
