Construction Update: West Jordan High School Crews Complete Key Milestones of Phase 1

Construction crews at West Jordan High School are making steady progress on a major renovation project and are on track to complete Phase 1 in late spring 2027.

Crews have already completed raising the floor in the commons area and installed key support beams designed to lift the roof during Phase 2. Around the gymnasium, workers have begun tearing down the east wall and building new structural walls to expand the gym footprint to the east.

Meanwhile, the southwest corner of the building remains closed off while workers remodel classrooms on both the first and second floors. Construction is also underway to add five career and technical education classrooms to the west side of the building.

The extensive renovation of the 45-year-old building began this summer following approval from the Jordan Board of Education. Opting for a comprehensive remodel rather than a full rebuild is expected to save taxpayers more than $100 million.

Set for final completion in November 2029, the modernized facility will feature more natural light, improved ADA accessibility, new flooring, collaborative learning spaces, a new dance studio, an upgraded weight room, and an expanded gym.
