The Next Chapter

Every improvement we make to this campus is in service of our students—giving them the space, the resources, and the environment they need to grow into independent, curious, and capable individuals.

What We’re Building

The centerpiece of the project is a new Physical Education and Performing Arts Center, created by transforming a previously underutilized area of our campus. This will allow us to renovate our current PE and Performing Arts space into four new classrooms as well as transforming the current Makerspace area into a new common area featuring lockers and expanded restroom facilities. More than an upgrade to daily logistics—this extends the prepared environment of our school. In Montessori education, the spaces children move through throughout the day are not incidental, they are considered essential to development. Social interaction, the rhythms of transition, and the quiet moments of community that happen in shared spaces provide children the freedom to move, connect, and grow not just in the classroom, but throughout their entire day.

Three Summers. One Vision.

This is the third consecutive summer that Fraser Woods has invested meaningfully in its campus. Each project has built on the last — and together they tell a story about a school that takes its mission seriously enough to keep reaching.

Athletic Field & Campus Grounds | Summer 2024
A new multi-use synthetic athletic field, driveway improvements, and updated landscaping — changing how our students experience the outdoors every single day.

Building Envelope Renovation | Summer 2025
New siding, windows, and roofing — improving energy efficiency, and giving our building the warmth and presence it deserves.

The Largest Project in Our History | Summer 2026
A new PE & Performing Arts Center, four new classrooms, and expanded common areas. The most ambitious thing we have ever built — together.

What to Expect This Summer

Our summer program will run as scheduled. Some activities will use alternative spaces during construction, and there may be small adjustments to traffic flow on campus. We will keep you informed every step of the way — clearly, and well in advance of any changes.

On Gratitude

For more than five decades, the Fraser Woods community has made quiet, consistent choices that put children first. This expansion is the latest expression of that commitment—and it didn’t happen because of any single decision or any single year. It happened because of all of you, over a very long time.

We are proud to be a school that is growing. Not just in the size of our campus, but in what we are able to offer the children who walk through our doors — and in the depth of the community that walks alongside them.

We can’t wait to welcome you into these new spaces.
