A rendering shows the inside of media center proposed for three new elementary schools in Bristol Township. All three of the proposed new school feature a media center in the front of the building. The media center will have work stations, books and multi-media resources.

The stairwells of the elementary schools are decorated with wise words. The district hopes to get all three schools open by September 2015.

The new schools are part of the estimated $152-plus million district-wide facilities overhaul that would close the current nine elementary schools and have three 1,300-student buildings constructed in their place. Franklin D. Roosevelt Middle School would close, while Neil A. Armstrong Middle School and the former Benjamin Franklin School, currently home to the district administrative staff, would be renovated for middle school students. Harry S. Truman High School would not see any major work done and Clara Barton Elementary School would be re-purposed into the administration and maintenance building.
