A Campus Master Plan renders a bold vision for the Lexington School, beginning with the New Lower School Wing in 2002. This first phase defines a new campus green and sets the stage for future projects, including the New Academic Center, athletic fields and playgrounds.
Devise a plan that first pays homage to the surrounding historic context, yet fosters Lexington School’s curriculum and collaborative approach to education with a 21st century design that addresses current overcrowding, accommodates future enrollment increases and latest technologies, and provides common spaces.
Phase 1 of the Master Plan, the new Lower School Wing, uses a bold curve to set it apart from the existing facility, defining a new campus green and setting the stage for future projects.
Phase 2 of the Master Plan includes the addition of a new Academic Center, athletic fields and playgrounds. The new shared Academic Center anchors the three academic divisions – Preschool, Lower School and Middle School, creating a strong front door to the building and allowing each division direct access to a covered drop-off and plaza.
