Construction Update
Exciting Campus and Building Updates at Phoenix Academy
At Phoenix Academy, we are always looking ahead to provide the best possible experience for our students, families, and staff. We’re excited to share important updates about upcoming improvements to our campus and buildings that are designed to address current needs and support our future growth. If you have any questions that aren't addressed on this page, please contact us.
Project Overview
The updates will take place in two phases to help minimize disruptions to daily school life.
- Phase One (completed) began at the end of the 2024-25 school year, with preparation work starting in early May. Construction officially began after the last day of school.
- Phase Two (underway) includes new classrooms, food service areas, additional restrooms, updated entryways, and other campus improvements. These improvements are on track to be completed before the start of the 2026-27 school year.
- Phase Three (scheduled) includes construction of the new high school gymnasium and spectator seating. Construction is scheduled to begin in August 2026, with completion anticipated in spring 2027. Check back regularly for updates!
August 18, 2026 Update
We’re ready to welcome students to Phoenix Academy!
Over the past several weeks, our teams have worked hard to complete the final steps across all three school buildings. Here's a look at some photos!
July 15, 2026 Update
Construction continues to progress on schedule across all three Phoenix campuses. Crews are currently installing classroom cabinetry, painting interiors, completing finishes, and installing kitchen equipment in preparation for onsite meal service later this fall. Floor polishing and waxing will begin next week, with final inspections scheduled for August. We're excited to continue sharing updates as the campus comes together for the start of the school year!
June 19, 2026 Update
With the school year complete, construction activity has shifted into high gear across campus. Thanks to the tremendous efforts of Phoenix Academy teachers and staff, the upper and lower buildings were successfully cleared of all classroom materials during the final days of school, allowing construction crews to begin work immediately.
Crews are now actively removing walls and preparing interior spaces for renovation as work continues to transform the buildings into updated learning environments for students. Daily progress is becoming more visible as construction teams move through the next phase of the project.
The project remains on schedule, and it has been exciting to see the steady progress taking place each day. We look forward to sharing additional updates as construction continues throughout the summer.

May 18, 2026 Update
The addition to the back of the high school is now fully enclosed and protected from the elements. Crews have completed framing interior walls, and work will now shift to the installation of ductwork, electrical wiring, and plumbing. Grass on the new sports and practice fields is coming in nicely, supported by the new irrigation system and plans for the new gymnasium are being reviewed by the building department. Construction continues to be on schedule.
Included photos show current construction progress, along with example images from another National Heritage Academies campus to help illustrate the planned look and feel of the future gymnasium space that is slated to be complete by spring of 2027.

April 20, 2026 Update
Construction continues to be on schedule at the high school building. Crews are busy working to install roof joists, and they have started to close off the addition. Work inside will get busier once the area is protected from the elements.
March 16, 2026 Update
Work is progressing nicely at the high school building. The concrete slab has been poured, and vertical construction has begun with the framing of the building structure. The creation of a new, permanent retention pond is nearly complete on the west corner of the campus, and the entire project continues to be on schedule.
February 18, 2026 Update
Wintry weather has created some challenges for construction work at our high school, but additional crews have been added to prepare the underground plumbing. This will enable the concrete slab to be poured by the end of the month. The concrete foundation perimeter, seen in these drone photos, is already in place, and the site has been compacted. While the snow and ice have been challenging for crews, construction is still on schedule.
January 14, 2026 Update
Work at the high school is progressing nicely and crews have finished pre-construction work to the back of the building. Utility underground pipework continues which will be followed by foundation and concrete slab work. Mild weather has been helpful to the construction schedule!
