Plainfield High School
Career, College, and Life-Ready Students
New classrooms and labs accommodate the school’s expanding PLTW and CTE programs, helping to prepare students for college and a wide range of careers.
Podcasting and TV Broadcasting
A new TV studio and podcast recording room give students hands-on experience through projects like the student-run “Quaker Update” video series covering school news and sports.
Supporting Growing Performing Arts Programs
Expanded, purpose-built performing arts facilities give choir, band, and orchestra students better opportunities to practice, collaborate, and compete at a higher level.
Students Share Their Excitement for the New Spaces
“With the new space, we will be able to be more competitive because we now have access to new practice rooms, allowing individuals and groups to practice music outside of the ensemble,” senior Ethan Allen said. “Other than that, the new tiling allows us to practice marching basics and choreography, improving our visual scoring capabilities.”
Allen also said, “I feel that these changes will be monumental in improving the capabilities and ability to compete at competitions year round.”
“The old [choir room] was a lot smaller and we only had small mirrors on one side of the classroom that we couldn’t even fit all the risers in and there were no sound barriers,” senior Jaslyne Riley explained. “We only had three practice rooms and they were terrible.”
