The Campus of Wickliffe – Designed for Flexible Learning
As part of the “Catalyst for Change” initiative, the 204,000 SF Wickliffe PreK-12 Campus was designed to create flexible learning spaces for the Wickliffe City School District that would be capable of adapting to future educational needs. The facility hosts collaborative spaces, flexible classrooms, athletics areas, and a nearly 500-seat performing arts center. The $60 million project replaces the aging elementary, middle, and high schools with a single PreK-12 building. In addition, the new facility hosts space for the Family Resource Center, a community center that offers free services to many in need.
