Master Planning Process
Our school district began working to address building improvements and educational needs of our primary students in 2021
Wyoming Primary Facilities Master Plan
The Wyoming Primary Facilities Master Plan calls for three new K-4 schools: ​
-
A new 35,150-square-foot Elm School on the current site with an expanded footprint.
-
A new 50,000-square-foot Hilltop School on the current site with an expanded footprint.
-
A new 35,150-square-foot Vermont School on the current site with an expanded footprint.
Components for each new school include secure entry vestibules; improved accessibility; larger classrooms; additional classrooms and space for gifted education, special education, and intervention; spaces for art and music; adequate gym space; and expanded kitchens and student dining areas in each building. The project will incorporate sustainable design and cost effective strategies which could include such things as daylighting; rainwater management; water use reduction; high-performing building systems, construction, and demolition waste management specifying materials with high recycled content; and improved indoor air quality.

Wyoming Primary Schools Facility Steering Committee
Wyoming Community Schools created the The Wyoming Primary Schools Facilities Steering Committee in September 2023. The committee of 38 members included eight current teachers, 23 community members, and seven administrative staff and current members of the Board of Eduction. The committee met nine times to discuss primary school options, identifying challenges and future options. As part of the process, the community was invited to four community forums over a 12-month period. Online feedback was collected, a listening session offered, and a statistically significant community survey conducted.
