EHS Media Center Upgrades Furniture
In 2013, the Edina High School Media Center received an Ed Fund grant. The Media Center decided to create a library that had less books, and more floor space allowing the Media Center to be a place of interactive learning.
They added node chairs, a high table, and small round chairs. These additions gave the library a more collaborative work feel, where Edina High School students could gather around a table, and study for an upcoming test, or read a book. Another grant will be arriving on Oct. 20th, expanding the interactive feel of the library. Media Specialist Sara Swenson described what this new grant will be able to bring to the library:
- Booth seating
- media:scape table
- High table with a glass wall
- High table
- Swivel chairs
To see the exact placement of this new furniture, Ms. Swenson has placed orange construction cones in the library where they will be placed. She has also placed a map outlining the new Media Center on the libraries door.
Madeline Marker has accomplished many things in her 16 years of life. Her lengthy list includes but is not limited to being a band dropout, finishing 84th...

The media center looks like it is going to be a great place to study! I love the idea of having booth seating and high top tables; it gives students the option to study comfortably in a variety of seated options.
