PROJECT GOALS

The New Keith Valley Middle School has been planned around several key district goals: • Provide a modern day educational program to serve all aspects of the Hatboro-Horsham community. • Provide state of the art facilities that respond to physical demands magnified by the pandemic. • Create a community facility for use inside and out that is made available to all community groups. • Building will aid in addressing academic recovery caused by the pandemic. • Prioritize safety, security and excellent indoor air quality for all building users. Which were exacerbated by pandemic. The Keith Valley Middle School will be “Shovel Ready” in June 2022. Preliminary approvals have been received from all authorities having jurisdiction and most notably Horsham Township. Upon receipt of final approvals the construction phase will be publicly bid to obtain the lowest, most responsive cost for the work. The HHSD unanimously favors the project to replace the aging school and provide a state of the art facility for the community. PERMITTING AND READINESS
