Columbus City Schools’ new Starling PK-8 School combines Dana Elementary School and Starling Middle School and features a three-story academic wing to the north and a two-story open atrium through the center of the building. Starling features natural daylight throughout the facility and energy efficient geothermal heating and cooling, and with its use of recycled and natural materials, Starling is a candidate for LEED Silver Certification. Farnham Equipment Company is pleased to have been part of this project and offered products to assist with LEED certification from Stevens Industries, Brodart Contract Furniture, Borroughs Corporation, and Hussey Seating Company.
