CONSTRUCTION UPDATES As part of our continued progress, the school’s administration and Buildings and Grounds Committee have selected a construction partner to guide us through the remaining design phase of the new Middle School building. Following a competitive Request for Proposals process with several qualified construction firms, the school conducted interviews and carefully evaluated each submission before selecting a project partner.

Engaging a construction partner at this stage allows us to refine project costs, strengthen planning, and move thoughtfully toward construction while remaining responsible stewards of the school’s resources. We look forward to keeping you informed as this exciting work continues to advance.

Here are some new renderings from our architect, Semple Brown.
