South Valley Middle School was built in the mid 1950’s as a high school and was converted to middle school. The 21 acre campus is in a diverse neighborhood and had reached the end of life on many of the buildings and utilities, and needed replacement. The new village concept design includes providing a new look for the school and relocating the entry from one street to another, relieving traffic in the area and providing safe drop off for the students. The school has new classrooms with outdoor learning areas, science and makers space classrooms; a signature administration, Multi-Use and library building, and gymnasium. The Tiger quad exemplifies the schools mascot while the outdoor learning spaces spread through out the campus.
