Renovation Projects Keep Campus Busy
Summer construction and renovation projects at Woodberry Forest School have been keeping scores of contractors and staff members busy this summer. Students will return to find welcome changes to roads, walkways,and buildings; and many faculty members and their families will move into new or updated homes.
Early steps toward reimagining the Walker Building have begun. A new portico over the entrance to the Baker Wing of the Walker Building is taking shape, offering a safer and more inviting approach to the upper campus. The road to the front of the school's original building is being widened, and a brick sidewalk will soon be crafted. The former Reynolds Family Dining Room and kitchen are being converted to library and archives spaces, while the interior of the tower section is being completely renewed to better serve as office space and faculty housing. An enclosure for the Walker Building's future HVAC system is going up in the Dick Gym parking area, with new walkways and parking slated.
Elsewhere on campus, new faculty residences, with room for four families, are nearly complete, and several older residences are being fully renovated. And the school's housekeeping office is now located in a new building near the barns north of The Residence.
Woodberry Forest School is an exceptional private school community for high school boys in grades nine through twelve. It is one of the top boarding schools in the United States and one of the only all-boys, all-boarding schools in the country.
