Northwest Allen County Schools | Willow Creek Middle School
Bordered by farmland in the countryside of Huntertown, IN, Willow Creek Middle School is the third middle school added to the Northwest Allen County Schools (NACS) district. Made possible through the Hatch and Malcom families who provided the land through a partnership with NACS, Willow Creek was designed to relieve the growing influx of students attending both Carroll and Maple Creek Middle Schools. With architecture by Moake Park Group and construction managed by Weigand, this facility makes NACS education resources available to more students and families residing in the surrounding communities.
Dynamic Learning Environment
Built as a single-story, 183,000 square foot complex, Willow Creek features a wide range of facilities specially configured to support both existing and future learning formats:
Student Library Commons and Study Areas Band Practice Room Computer Programming Area Applied Skills Classroom SPED Program Spaces Science Lab Project-Based Learning Spaces Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Grade Wings Cafeteria Auditorium with Backstage and Lighting Teacher’s Lounge Conference Rooms
This floor plan provides students with a well-structured atmosphere as well as resources and offerings to develop their skills across a diverse set of learning disciplines.
Spanning Athletic Facilities
Willow Creek also features an established sports complex and athletic spaces including:
Football, Baseball, and Soccer Practice Fields Training and Wellness Center Locker Rooms Football Stadium with Seating for 1,250 Spectators Eight-Lane Running Track Six Pickleball Courts Four Tennis Courts Gymnasium with Basketball Court and Grandstand
Designed for Future Development
Sitting on a 130-acre plot of land, the middle school can support up to 1,000 students and is well positioned for expansion as needs change in the years ahead. Weigand Construction is proud to have partnered with Northwest Allen County Schools to transform their vision into real bricks and mortar. The home of the Thunderhawks is now enriching the lives of students and families in Huntertown, helping to build promising futures of young learners in the district.
