West Kearns Elementary Site – October 2026 Update

October 2026

Demolition of the previous school building is nearly complete. Construction on the new building will begin in January 2027 and is anticipated to run through December 2028. 

The design of this new school stems from the South Kearns and Olene Walker Elementary Schools. Many of the same characteristics will be present in the new building, which will help the rebuild save on time and costs. The building will be a two-story structure, approximately 94,000 square feet. It will include site security fencing and a secure vestibule into the front of the school and administrative suite. The second story will house the Media Center and the teacher collaboration hub. The main level will have a small food pantry and family engagement center. There will be 36 classrooms including special education spaces in addition to a kitchen, cafeteria, gym and multipurpose space. The building is anticipated to hold a little over 800 students.
