Inscription.
In 1998, Living Classrooms Foundation constructed the Rouse-Flick Learning Tower next to the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Education Center. The 75-foot Learning Tower is a living classroom for hands-on education and a memorial and tribute to the visionary thinking of James Rouse and the great potential of youth exemplified by Elizabeth Flick. The Tower houses several interactive learning stations that engage students in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) applications, including lessons in renewable energy illustrated through the Tower's solar and wind generators.

The Rouse-Flick Learning Tower is part of how Living Classrooms Foundation:
• increases access to engaging STEM-focused activities that support school earning,
• helps student view STEM subjects as relevant and useful to real-world tasks, issues, and careers, and
• encourages students to become environmental stewards.

 
Erected by Living Classrooms Foundation.
