New life into old classrooms




The swipe of a paintbrush turns outdated materials into modern-day wonders.


It’s hard to believe it could be so simple. One application of IdeaPaint turns even the most ancient of chalkboards into a modern-day teaching tool that makes the smart board look like a seriously overpriced investment. Better still, those old chalkboards are steering clear of the landfill, enabling schools to repurpose materials while conserving limited budget dollars.

Nettelhorst is a neighborhood elementary school in Chicago. It’s one of the oldest public schools in the city, housed in a building that dates back more than 100 years. As you might expect, constant refurbishment is a way of life for Nettelhorst – especially because school administrators place high importance on creating a comfortable, engaging environment that stimulates creativity and imagination.
