The Nate Berkus Show: Ultimate Surprise Office Makeover

Featuring Mrs. Amber Young Medina, Founding Principal of KIPP Raíces Academy

September 21, 2011

Los Angeles - Nate Berkus enlisted a dozen KIPP Raíces students to help design Ms. Medina’s first-ever office at KIPP. Until recently, KIPP Raíces had been divided over two campuses, and Ms. Medina had to split her time between the sites, using her car as a “mobile office.” Nate Berkus and his design team created a separate fully furnished office space for Ms. Medina, with a comfortable meeting area so she could provide a welcoming environment for students and families. Watch the episode in two parts below.
