Puyallup High School Construction

Puyallup High School

NOTICE: Street Closure, 7th Street NW

Starting December 23, 2024, the road closure around Puyallup High School will begin as part of a one-year pilot program with the City of Puyallup. The closure area has been reduced and will now exclude the segment of 7th St NW between 3rd Ave NW and 2nd Ave NW. 

This closure is designed to enhance student and staff safety. Emergency gates will be installed to ensure access for fire and emergency services, if needed. 

Please note the new traffic patterns: 

  • Families: Use 7th Street SW and W. Main for student drop-off and pick-up. 
  • Buses: Pick-up and drop-off will take place behind the Aquatics Center on 6th Street NW. 

We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we work together to make our school safer for everyone.

We are dedicated to enhancing Puyallup High School. Over the next four years, our Capital Projects team will undertake a series of construction projects focused on building improvements, technology upgrades, safety and security enhancements, and outdoor program advancements. Each initiative is crucial in meeting the evolving needs of our students and staff.

With the generous support of our community, the 2024 Capital Levy funds will allow us to replace, improve, and restore essential public infrastructure. We are excited about the positive impact these enhancements will have on the educational experience throughout our district.

Stay informed about our progress by following us here or on social media @FoundationsForOurFuture as we move from planning to construction.

*Much of the funding included in this capital levy is not just related to systems that need replacement due to their age but are also tied to becoming compliant with the Clean Buildings Act. We agree that the intent of this legislation is good for improving our impact on the environment, conserving energy, and lowering our operations costs, however it will take a significant investment. Without funding, it will be impossible to reach the benchmarks required to avoid the fines that will be levied by the state. Those fines would be paid from the general fund and could be thousands of dollars, again, impacting the resources available for teaching and learning. Learn more about our CBA requirements.

Puyallup High School Pool

June 18, 2024

Summer Upgrades Underway for Puyallup High School Pool 

School’s out and summer upgrades are underway for the Puyallup High School pool. Thanks to the support of voters who approved the February 2024 capital levy, our Capital Projects team launched a major refurbishment to enhance efficiency, safety, and longevity of the pool on Tuesday, June 18. Key improvements include replacing old pumps with high-efficiency models, upgrading to modern motors, installing new drives for better control, and fitting new sand filters for superior water quality. Additionally, the cooling tower will receive a protective epoxy coating to extend its service life. These upgrades reflect our commitment to providing quality facilities, ensuring a safer, more reliable, and sustainable experience for all.
