Lower School

For the past half century, the Lower School campus has held an important place in the hearts of the Wilmington Friends community. In order to improve teaching and learning for future generations of students, the Trustees have approved comprehensive renovations that will preserve the legacy of Wilmington Friends School and create an inspiring environment for the 21st Century and beyond.
The improvements, part of a comprehensive campus plan, will enhance the overall learning experience by introducing innovative playgrounds that promote physical activity, creativity, and social interaction. New equipment, better lighting and more natural light will improve the classroom experience and provide faculty with learning tools not previously available. A new entranceway will not only provide a fresh and welcoming first impression but also prioritize safety and accessibility for our students, families, and staff and prospective students and families as well.

These renovations will encompass vital improvements, including a state-of-the-art HVAC system, upgraded plumbing systems, and a modernized roof, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and conducive learning atmosphere.
Support of the physical transformation of the Lower School will be an investment in the educational excellence of the School and holistic development of its students. In creating a dynamic and supportive environment, Wilmington Friends School can empower students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.

The leadership of Wilmington Friends School, as stewards of the Lower School campus and the entire School, feel compelled to honor a commitment to students of the future, by renovating this valuable property as a part of the promise the School maintains to remain relevant and very connected to the educational needs of students entering a rapidly changing global environment.
