Construction & Design Updates

Event photo

On November 8, 2022, the Platteville community approved a facilities referendum which authorizes the District to borrow $36 million for facility improvements. Thank you!

The referendum plan includes work at all four campus sites, including a renovation of the cafeteria and gymnasium at the Neal Wilkins Early Learning Center, a parent pick-up/drop-off at Westview Elementary, a restroom and classroom addition at Platteville Middle School, and improvements at Platteville High School including a CTE classroom addition, cafeteria/kitchen renovations, and an outdoor activities complex.

Process
Since the referendum passed, the district moved into planning and design with our partners at PRA, Point of Beginning, and Miron Construction. Staff user groups have been formed and are providing valuable input into the design process.

Estimated Project Timeline
The graphic below provides a high-level overview of the design and construction schedule. Note that the timeline may shift as the work progresses and as we adapt to changing conditions.

Westview Elementary School Drop-Off/Pick-Up Lane & Parking is NOW COMPLETE

The new parent drop-off / pick-up area will provide additional safety for students as it will bring vehicles off of the street. Vehicles will also be able to stage in this area and safely drop off or pick up their student(s) in front of the building.

Activities Complex

The Platteville High School has begun construction on the Activities Complex located at the north end of the property. In order to preserve safety, we ask that you do not enter the construction zone without prior approval.

We will be hosting open tours bi-weekly beginning on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month.  No appointment necessary, simply walk to the back of the high school building and look for our POB partners.
