15 schools. One summer break.
Revitalizing Oceanside Unified School District
Located in the picturesque city of Oceanside, CA, OUSD faced an all-too-common dilemma: the outdated furniture in its schools was a learning roadblock. And while districts often wait to replace old furniture until they’ve remodeled, OUSD recognized their growing students needed a modernized learning space sooner. So, they came to Demco with a request — an enormous request. Was it possible to outfit 15 elementary schools with updated furnishings in just one summer?
“When I was tasked with replacing all of the furniture in the school district [during the summer of 2022], I was a little nervous,” says Dr. Andrea Norman, Associate Superintendent of Business Services. “Typically, school districts will do maybe one or two schools at a time. When I tell people from outside of our school district about the project, they can’t believe the scale.”
Creating effective and equitable learning environments for 9,000 students across 15 K–5 schools (three of which were located on Camp Pendleton military base) was deemed nearly impossible by most of OUSD’s potential project partners. But after an extensive interview process, Dr. Norman says, “Demco came out heads above the rest because of the services that they were able to offer.”
The Demco team surveyed every classroom and existing piece of furniture, coordinated input from administrators and teachers across the district, provided seamless project management in the midst of a supply chain crisis, developed visionary interior design that met the needs of dozens of educators at once, and ensured on-time delivery and installation of nearly 25,000 pieces of flexible furniture.
And the whirlwind process “could not have gone better because of the planning and direction from Demco,” says Dr. Norman. Teachers at OUSD schools say the new furniture has “made a huge improvement for students and their learning,” giving every student an equal spot in the room and a sense of ownership over the space. “With updated furniture,” says Education Specialist Janelle Slasor, “students feel like they matter, that we are ready to invest in them. And when we invest in them, they know that we care.”

“
I’ve never … felt like every kid had an equal spot in the room. It’s made my job so much easier.
— Alyssa Wells, Fifth Grade TeacherEnvironment is a significant part of the learning process. Sometimes we call it the third teacher.
— Dr. Andrea Norman, Associate Superintendent of Business Services “ I would say to any other school or principal that is considering Demco that they can’t go wrong with them. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
— Sam Glassford, Principal, Foussat Elementary

Demco FLEXplore
Unlock the potential in your spaces
Not long ago, rectangles and rows ruled the school. Teachers and students were stuck in gridlock, adapting to the space instead of adjusting the space to fit their needs. But with FLEXplore desks and tables, you can think outside the box and create spaces where innovation, connection, and growth come first. After all, no two students are the same; why should the places they learn be any less unique?
Features that flex with the best
• Lightweight designs are easy to rearrange
• Height-adjustable work surfaces support good ergonomics when sitting or standing
• Various shapes and sizes work together to create unique groupings that suit your space and style
• Dry-erase surfaces let students brainstorm freely
• Edge banding adds a pop of color
