!["Getty Magazine," a publication from The Getty Museum, recognized Poly for being a pioneering open-air school of the West Coast. What was originally intended as a means for students to enjoy fresh air and have windows to local nature, now serves the school in its efforts to ventilate classrooms and common spaces as well as allow for outdoor programming. Renowned architects Myron Hunt and Elmer Grey designed the elementary school with copious windows and wraparound porches surrounded by gardens and orange trees. This image from 1916 is not unlike the outdoor activities Poly is offering today.
