FCPS Middletown School Complex Development

History Summary

 In April, FCPS began a feasibility study to determine the best way to modernize and meet capacity needs at all three schools on the Middletown campus. Recommendations were presented to the Board of Education at the November 9, 2022, meeting. 

The feasibility study recommended replacement of all three buildings with a new high school building and a building for co-location of the elementary school (grades 3-5) and middle school (grades 6-8). The co-located building will be designed to accommodate separate elementary and middle school spaces.

The project officially began on July 1, 2023 when funding was approved for the project and a notice to proceed was issued to the design team on July 12, 2023. Since the start of design, FCPS staff has held three public meetings with representatives from the Town of Middletown and members of the public. FCPS also held a community meeting on January 25th at the Middletown HS cafeteria.

At the PTA meeting on February 20, the design team and FCPS staff look forward to discussing further developments to the concept site plan with the broader community in the Middletown schools feeder pattern. Feedback and comments received at this meeting will help the design team consider further updates to the concept site plan for an updated submission to the Middletown Planning Commission in March.   

All interested individuals are welcome to attend and to participate in the discussion. Updates about the project, including information about publicly held meetings, will continue being shared on the project webpage at https://www.fcps.org/capital-program/middletown-area
