Urban Middle School Construction Enters October Addition Phase in Sheboygan
Sheboygan, Wisconsin — September 12, 2026
Urban Middle School is continuing operations with temporary learning spaces while construction moves toward the next major phase of the Sheboygan Area School District’s middle-school facilities program.
In a September 9, 2026 construction update, the district said outdoor demolition at Urban Middle School, 1226 North Avenue in Sheboygan, is expected to finish by mid-September. Crews are then scheduled to begin footings, foundations and steel framing for a new three-story addition on the north side of the school in October 2026.
What is planned for the addition
The planned addition is expected to include core classrooms for each grade level. The district’s current goal is to move students into the new space during the 2027-28 school year.
That timing is a district target rather than a guaranteed completion date. Construction schedules can change as work progresses, so families should follow the district’s construction-update page for future changes.
What families should know
Urban Middle School remains in operation while students use temporary learning spaces and outdoor work continues. The district update identifies the upcoming construction steps and the expected transition from outdoor demolition to foundation and structural work.
The near-term milestone for families is the start of the October construction phase. Footings and foundations will establish the base for the planned addition, followed by steel framing for the three-story structure.
Part of a larger middle-school program
The Urban project is part of the district’s voter-approved $121 million facilities program involving Urban Middle School and Farnsworth Middle School. The City of Sheboygan Plan Commission record also identifies the proposed addition at the 1226 North Avenue site.
Parents, students and staff can monitor the district’s official construction updates as the project advances. The stated 2027-28 move-in goal may be adjusted if the construction timeline changes.
