Danbury High School West is on track to open for the 2025-26 school year, offering relief from overcrowding at the state’s largest high school. Construction continues at the former Cartus Corp. site on Apple Ridge Road, with new classrooms, offices, and a gymnasium taking shape. The school, which will house 1,400 students and the Board of Education offices, is part of a $164 million project approved by voters. The new campus will expand career pathways under the high school’s academies model and help address growing student enrollment.
