Danbury High School West takes shape on hilltop as it prepares to welcome students in fall 2025

City leaders say the Danbury High School West building is on track to open for the 2025-26 school year and finally offer students and staff a reprieve from overcrowding in the state’s, and New England’s, largest high school building. The building’s second phase of construction is underway, City Engineer Antonio Iadarola said in his latest report on the project. This phase includes “all work to fit out the building space for new classrooms, offices and construction of the new gymnasium addition,” Iadarola said in the report. If the current construction timeline holds, the building will open three years after city voters approved the funding for it. The building represented $164 million out of a total $204 million education bond package. The building’s name also changed: it was previously named Danbury Career Academy and now will be known as Danbury High School West. The building will also house the Board of Education offices.
