Hudson Middle School

The proposed new 176,500-square-foot Middle School will replace
the existing facility. This $44 million structure will serve approximately
1,100 students. The exterior is a traditional design concept, keeping
within the spirit of Hudson’s historical district. The interior, yet to
be designed, will feature flexible interior spaces that will provide
ample opportunities for collaborative and creative learning for all
students. The new Middle School design incorporates an athletic and
performing arts wing with a separate, secure entrance to be used for
games and performances.

The new Middle School will be reoriented on the Central Campus.
New traffic patterns will separate cars and buses. Walk and bike paths
will connect the campus from North Oviatt Street to North Hayden
Parkway, providing safe routes for students and the community. The
new Middle School will be the first facility completed in the Master
Plan. The existing 1960-1970 portion of the Middle School will be
torn down when it is no longer needed to house children during the
renovations of East Woods and McDowell. The 1927 building will
remain while alternative options for its use will be explored during the
completion of the Master Facility Plan.

Lavelli Field will remain an integral part of the Central Campus athletic
facilities. The Master Facility Plan includes improving the field and
tearing down the existing visitor stands, which are no longer needed
for sports with less spectators.

The Auto Tech building will be torn down. A new structure
will be appropriately located behind the High School near our
maintenance facilities.
