Park Forest Middle School Project

In 2023, a districtwide facilities master plan process began in October to assess building conditions, enrollment projects, and educational programs primarily at the middle level. The DWFMP also addressed sustainability, transportation operations, security, playground conditions, and athletic program needs.

As part of the DWFMP, after evaluating three district-owned sites for a new three-story, 200,000 square-foot Park Forest Middle School, the district and the architectural firm of Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates chose a tract across Valley Vista Drive from the current school, next to Circleville Park. The district held four community forums — two in February and two in April — to provide updates on the design process and the project overall.
