"We had a real personal Middle School in Clayton for the first time, and it can accommodate six to eight grades.
In high school classrooms, there are new cabinets, whiteboards and tables, which we think are better than traditional cooperative learning tables.

In the brand new art studio, teachers and students have the opportunity to use the new Kiln House, butcher's table and lots of storage space.
In the science classroom, there are laboratory tables with drawers, and each student can save the equipment needed for classroom experiments.
"It is equipped with all the materials needed to succeed," said Christina Tiesi, who teaches biology and environmental science in high school.
"We have computers at each of our experimental stations, and they can input data and integrate technology like real scientists do.
Tiesi said she is also grateful for her new smart motherboard, an Elmo projector that can zoom in images seen through a microscope onto the screen, an interactive tool, students can answer quiz questions remotely in order to quickly analyze and score during the same class.
"The referendum has also put us on a new track, upgraded softball and baseball courts, and started adding greenhouses to the biology classroom," Koutsogiannis said . ".
All new additions and renovations, he said, are "pride" for students and teachers ".
"I 've heard a lot of kids say, 'This is a real high school right now, 'says Koutsogiannis. '".
"They are taking control of everything and strengthening it.
This is the pride of the community.
Koutsogiannis says the school now matches its residents very well.
"I have the best staff in New Jersey," he said . ".
