Wylandville Elementary Construction

About Wylandville Elementary School Development

The Canon-McMillan School District’s Board of Education approved the reconstruction of Wylandville Elementary School in 2025, which is located on the existing 14.2-acre site. Designed by HHSDR Architects, construction began in early 2025, with completion targeted for August 2027.

The new 149,200-square-foot structure will support modern educational practices. Notable design features will include a shared stage between the gymnasium and cafeteria, large team rooms for third and fourth-grade students, two artificial play areas and an outdoor classroom space. Dedicated rooms for related arts and specialized programming will also be integrated into the climate-controlled facility.

Wylandville will feature modern accessibility elements, including elevators, braille signage, visual annunciators, grab bars, lever hardware and wide clearance paths. The kindergarten classrooms will be constructed to meet ICC-500 EF5 tornado shelter standards. 

The facility will use energy-efficient materials, sustainable site design, indoor environmental quality controls, water-efficient systems and occupancy-sensor lighting. Gas-fired boilers will power the HVAC system, providing complete climate control and CO₂ monitors in the air units to regulate ventilation. Hands-free faucets and flush valves will be installed to promote hygiene and reduce water usage. Throughout the construction process, the District strives to minimize waste and recycle materials whenever possible.
