Drawing Up the Plans!

The design team at ISG Architects has been hard at work throughout the summer, planning refreshed and improved spaces for Washburn Middle/High School. One focus of the referendum projects is to create a secure, welcoming entrance to the building and ensure full accessibility for all students.

Pictured in the link below are renderings of the new main entrance and front office area. The team is on schedule to complete the building design this fall, after which the project will be put out to bid by Miron Construction.  Construction is set to begin in spring 2026.
