Explore Our New
Learning Environments
In May 2022, the Bethel Park School District took two giant leaps towards providing students spaces that foster 21st Century Learning.
After spending time looking at several options to best update our school environments, we officially began renovating the middle school on May 1.
We also voted to begin construction of a new K-5 building that will house all of our elementary students in one location. The 3-story, 234,000 square-foot school will open its doors in August 2026.
The decisions to renovate the current middle school building and build a new elementary center were made because they are cost-efficient, will prioritize education programming and site utilization, and will set our students up for success not only in the immediate future, but for many, many years to come.
What is 21st Century Learning?
Bethel Park will be Best in Class through the Best People, the Best Programs and the Best Places for Learning.
