SCHOOLYARD RENDERINGS PRODUCED BY UWM’S School of Architecture and Urban Planning (SARUP)

*Renderings are intended plans for the schoolyard and are subject to change.

Wedgewood Park International School and Honey Creek Elementary are located in the Menomonee River Watershed and the city's Separated Sewer System. In 2025, Wedgewood Park and Honey Creek Schools were awarded a schoolyard redevelopment planning grant to develop a common vision for a combined greener, healthier schoolyard. The two schools are within the same parcel of land providing an opportunity to redevelop both schoolyards at the same time.

The schools and surrounding neighborhood community worked collaboratively with support from project partners to develop a conceptual plan that includes new green spaces that manage stormwater, provide improved recreation and education opportunities, and inspire students to take care of the environment.

The school is actively fundraising to help transform their conceptual plan into reality through December 2026.
