Becker Morgan Group was honored to receive the Project of Distinction Award at the 2023 Association for Learning Environments (A4LE) Northeast Region Conference for their design work on the Rock Creek School in Frederick County, MD.
Rock Creek School provides individualized special education programs for students with severe intellectual, physical, emotional, hearing, visual, and learning disabilities.

Additionally, Sandra Carpenter, LEED AP BD+C, was the recipient of the 2023 Distinguished Service Award for her over 30 years of design excellence and commitment to A4LE’s mission “to strengthen learning for all through better environments”.
