Elementary school in Greeley, Colorado built in the mid 60s definitely had a Jetsons vibe about it. Open plan school rooms with sunken “rapping spaces” were the norm back in the late 60s early 70s. The highlight, of course was the giant outdoor activities area that was covered by this whopping cool-as-shit concrete dome. The main buildings remain, but the dome was torn down sometime ago.

Spoiler: Open plan school rooms ended up being one of the worst possible ideas for education. Practically impossible to get kids to concentrate with not only one classroom of audible distractions, but a dozen.
I saw this in a sci-fi movie or series episode. I can’t remember which one. Sliders? Stargate?
It looks like the Bill and Ted future.
