  • For more than a century, Montague Park in Southside Chattanooga has been home to many things: a city landfill, a recreation center and a sculpture garden. Now, an urban design and landscape planning process will reimagine the park, to revitalize the space for this century.
  • Integrating the arts into early learning involves a collaborative choreography among educators. Kelly Shimel is the fine arts coordinator for Hamilton County Schools - and Jesse Goins is the principal of Battle Academy, the magnet school in Southside Chattanooga.
  • Inventanooga is an annual showcase for students to pitch an invention and business plan that addresses a real world problem. The most recent competition was held last month, presented by STEM School Chattanooga and the Gary W. Rollins College of Business here at UTC.
