Meteor Education Acquires Sharp School Services, Expanding Reach and Support Across the Midwest 

Gainesville, FL – January 8, 2026 – Meteor Education, the leader in the design and delivery of collaborative, flexible learning environments, has announced the acquisition of Sharp School Services, a trusted provider of K–12 furniture and design solutions headquartered in Hobart, Indiana.

This acquisition advances Meteor’s goal to reach more students in more places, expanding its presence throughout the Midwest and strengthening its ability to support districts with full-service learning environment solutions.

“Indiana students have always been at the heart of what we do,” said David Sharp, President of Sharp School Services. “We’ve grown alongside the districts we serve, and our community ties are what make our work special. By joining Meteor Education, we’re gaining additional resources and design expertise to serve our schools even better, while keeping our roots and focus right here in Indiana.”

For more than 35 years, Sharp School Services has built a reputation as a go-to partner for Indiana schools, providing high-quality furniture solutions for every learning environment. Sharp works with many of the same trusted manufacturers as Meteor—such as VS America, Wisconsin Bench, AmTab, and FomCore—creating a natural alignment between the two organizations.

“Sharp School Services has been a pillar of support for Indiana schools, known for their reliability, expertise, and long-standing relationships across the state,” said Bill Latham, CEO of Meteor Education. “Joining forces allows us to bring together Sharp’s local insight and Meteor’s national capabilities to accelerate how Indiana districts create modern learning environments that elevate teaching and enhance student learning.”

Through this partnership, Sharp’s team will now be able to leverage Meteor’s comprehensive studio model, which includes expert educators, in-house designers, and post-install educator support. It also expands Sharp’s ability to support schools developing Career and Technical Education (CTE) spaces by pairing Meteor’s proven experience in lab design and implementation with Sharp’s close understanding of Indiana district needs.
