Description:
Venn worked side-by-side with the Scottsdale Ice Den, TPH, and 292 Design on this unique school building and training center. The four classroom center for excellence offers unique study spaces for students to learn on and off the rink. Completed on a tight time frame, Venn was introduced early in the design process, allowing our team to procure long-lead items in advance, so no supply issues were seen during the construction process.
Total Package Hockey was created as an on and off-ice hockey athlete training curriculum with a wholly individualized blended academic learning experience. Student-athletes attend the Center of Excellence on a clock similar to traditional school and receive elite-level hockey training and mentorship, all while studying in a learning environment that blends a proven, NCAA-accredited, online learning platform with on-site academic leadership.
It is important to note that from an academic perspective, the Center of Excellence is not a “home school,” nor is it a “virtual school.” The CoE is a blended learning environment that utilizes an online platform to maximize academic development and customized outcomes for each student-athlete.
