Long-Range Facilities Plan

The Long-Range Facilities Plan for North Shore School District 112 is a comprehensive effort to update and modernize our schools. This long-range plan reflects a strategic approach to improving the district's facilities in phases, with attention to safety, security and modern educational needs.

Following the successful renovation of our middle schools in Phase 1, we are currently focused on our elementary schools as part of Phase 2. This includes the renovation of Indian Trail, Ravinia, Braeside, Sherwood and Wayne Thomas. These projects are being financed by the 2022 referendum, approved by our community with a resounding 72% of the vote.

Phase 1

The first phase of the Long-Range Facilities Plan focused on the district's two middle schools, Northwood and Edgewood.

  • Construction at Northwood began in 2019 and was completed in 2021.
  • Construction at Edgewood began in 2021 and was completed in April 2023.
  • Upgrades were completed at Oak Terrace to accommodate the Early Childhood program. Additionally, the main entrance was relocated to the north side of the building.

Phase 2

We are currently in the second phase of the Long-Range Facilities Plan, which is focused on five of the district's elementary schools. This phase is possible due to the successful referendum in 2022.

  • Construction at Indian Trail began in August 2023 and was completed in September 2024. The school will reopen to students and staff following the 2024 Thanksgiving break. Indian Trail is temporarily relocated to 2031 Sheridan Road, in the building formerly known as Elm Place Middle School.
  • Construction at Ravinia began in December 2023. Construction is expected to be completed in Spring 2025, and will reopen to students and staff to begin the 2025-2026 school year. Ravinia is temporarily relocated to 1936 Green Bay Road, in the building formerly known as the Green Bay Early Childhood Center.
  • Construction at Sherwood will begin in the February 2025. It is expected to be completed in May 2026, with students and staff returning to the building to begin the 2026-2027 school year. The school will temporarily relocate to Elm Place during construction.
     
  • Braeside's renovation is expected to commence in August 2025 and be completed in November 2026. A date for a return to the building is not yet set, but is expected to be in January 2027, following winter break. Braeside will temporarily relocate to Green Bay during construction.
     
  • Wayne Thomas' renovation will commence following the completion of Sherwood, around July 2026. Construction is expected to last about 14 months, with students and staff returning to the building around November 2027.
