Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: It looks like a fortress, but George Syme Junior Public School in York borough "is the most advanced school building system in the world," Toronto architect Roderick Robbie says. When Casey French (left) and Santina Famele attend class they'll find moveable walls that are blackboards too.
