EDGEWATER — Sacred Heart School announced this week it plans to expand its campus playground by moving some of its parking spaces to a newly acquired lot at the southeast corner of West Granville and North Kenmore Avenues.
In the fall, Sacred Heart's Head of Schools Nat Wilburn said the school plans to close on the sale of the lot, allowing it to convert a portion of its Driehaus Center campus parking lot, at 6200 N. Sheridan Road, into a "re-imagined" play area for students.
Sacred Heart said construction is already underway for four new "state-of-the-art learning spaces" that will be utilized by its fifth-graders. Construction on the school's South Wing rooftop playground should wrap-up by mid-December, they said.
"We are thrilled that our fifth-graders will be moving into large, bright spaces that will facilitate learning and collaboration among teachers," Wilburn said.
