What's Happening
- On April 28, members of the Lexington School Master Planning Advisory Committee reviewed recently updated LPS enrollment projections. If all currently planned housing developments are completed, high school enrollment could rise modestly—by just under +30 students—by FY30.
- The project is in the Schematic Design phase—the stage where we define what will actually be built. If you want to help shape how the school will look and function, now is the time to get involved! Find out more about the status of the project in the March 2025 Monthly Report.
- The March 24 and April 15 School Building Committee (SBC) meeting agendas included finalizing which spaces will be air-conditioned, unveiling exterior design plans, reviewing space layouts and options for potential future expansion, and exploring lighting and material choices for the fields. Visit the SBC Meetings webpage to view the agendas and recordings.
- Save the date for Community Forum #11: Wednesday, May 21, 6:30pm at Cary Memorial Hall. View recordings and presentations from past community forums.
