Cass Street School, located within the Milwaukee River Watershed and Combined Sewer System, has been awarded a schoolyard redevelopment planning grant to develop a common vision for a greener, healthier schoolyard. The school and surrounding neighborhood community will work collaboratively with support from project partners to develop a conceptual plan to include new green spaces that manage stormwater, provide improved recreation and education opportunities, and inspire students to take care of the environment throughout 2024. This redevelopment project will incorporate Cass Street (Park) Playfield in partnership with Milwaukee Recreation.
