We are open to any and all visitors - although I should preface and say our
space is nowhere near as amazing as Todd's!  But I feel like we've built
slowly and surely and our system is doable and could be easily replicated
with time and a small budget.   Contact me at bjohnson at d70schools.org and I
can coordinate visits to a few of our other buildings too.  We are all at
different stages of implementation so that might be interesting to see!
