Following nearly three years of construction, the new middle school opened to students on March 7.
Facilities
With seven schools, 360+ classrooms and more than 100 acres of ground to maintain, the Facilities Department works hard to make sure that our students and teachers have a functional, clean and safe atmosphere for teaching, learning and playing.
- Our dedication to “going green” means that our schools take advantage of such resources as solar energy and energy-efficient lighting, and our custodial staff uses cleaning products and equipment that are friendly to the environment.
- State-of-the-art turf and natural grass athletic fields host community groups, Plymouth Whitemarsh High School teams and collegiate action through a partnership between Colonial School District and Chestnut Hill College.
- With more than 100 security cameras, monitored alarm systems and secured hallway access doors to help them keep students and staff safe, the Security team collectively has more than 100 years of police experience and fosters a strong relationship with the three municipal police departments and the Montgomery County Juvenile Probation Department that serve the Colonial School District.
Facilities News

The new building is beginning to look more and more like a school, with some classrooms already outfitted with lab tables and cabinets.

After a brief layoff, workers were back on site the week of April 13.

Workers are installing foundations for the three-story classroom section. The first steel should be erected next month.

The construction site is being prepared for the installation of the building foundation.
