Annually, TSBA recognizes architectural firms for their excellence in design. In accordance with TSBA’s policy, any school building that was or will be occupied before November 1 of the current year or three years prior to November 1 of the current year is eligible for the award. School of the year awards are granted in five categories including new school construction of elementary, middle, and high schools, renovation and the People’s Choice award, which is selected by the attendees to the exhibit hall during convention.
We appreciate the interest shown through the years
by architectural firms, and look forward to a good number of
entries again this year. Please remember that there are no on-site
visitations, and that awards will be made based solely on the
material and information provided to the judges. Prime consideration
should be given to the architectural solution of the stated Educational
Program Requirements/Specifications according to the criteria
listed in the policy. Judges must have this information in order
to compare entries.
School architects must receive approval from the local board of education and submit an entry form with the appropriate fee. The fee is $175 per entry. TSBA Business Affiliates pay a reduced fee of $160. Awards are presented to both the architectural firm and to the local board.
