LIBERTY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Pulaski County, Missouri

Latest Update: October 6, 2025

Wright Construction Services is proud to partner with the Waynesville R-VI School District on the development of the new Liberty Elementary School—an innovative and future-ready learning environment set to serve students from Pre-K through 5th grade.

This 97,000-square-foot, ground-up construction project is taking shape on a 26.2-acre site in Waynesville, Missouri. Designed by incite Design Studio, LLC, Liberty Elementary is being built with sustainability, safety, and student collaboration in mind.

Key Features:

  • Net Zero Energy Design: The school will include a dedicated solar field, positioning it as one of the first Net Zero campuses in the region.
  • Enhanced Safety: A precast concrete storm shelter is incorporated into the design to ensure student and staff safety during severe weather events.
  • Student Wellness and Recreation: Two playgrounds and a gymnasium with a full-size basketball court will support physical education and play.
  • Collaborative Learning Environment: All classrooms feature overhead garage-style doors that open into flexible shared learning spaces—encouraging teamwork, creativity, and cross-class collaboration.

Current Progress

As of Fall 2025, the project is advancing on schedule.

  • Footings and foundations are underway in Area B.
  • MEP underground rough-in is progressing alongside the foundation crews.
  • Behind the scenes, Wright Construction is working closely with precast and MEPFP partners to coordinate storm shelter panel fabrication for later this fall.
  • Favorable weather has supported continuous field activity and sustained productivity.

Looking Ahead

With foundations nearing completion, the team will soon transition to vertical construction, including steel erection and enclosure work. The fabrication and installation of the storm shelter panels will mark a major project milestone heading into winter.

Partnership & Vision

This project reflects Wright Construction’s ongoing collaboration with the Waynesville School District to deliver safe, modern, and energy-efficient educational spaces. Once complete, Liberty Elementary will stand as a model for sustainable, student-focused design in Missouri.
