Detroiters Vote on Name for New School in Southwest Detroit 

Cultivating community for future generations

After a series of community meetings, on Tuesday, March 24th, 2026, residents from Southwest Detroit gathered virtually to discuss the final stretch of planning for a new school being built in the Springwells neighborhood, on the former site of the Phoenix Academy. 

Phoenix Academy started out as Woodrow Wilson School operated by the Detroit Public School Community District (DPSCD). When Wilson closed in 2007 the building reopened as Phoenix Academy eventually transitioning to a charter before closing in 2016 due to low enrollment and poor academic performance. 

This $30 Million, 75,000 square foot design uses a precast concrete envelope with plans to commission local Detroit artists to render a mural on the exterior of the building

In the years that followed, the building sat vacant and endured theft, fires, and squatting which ultimately led community members to organize for something more–for something better for the neighborhood.

In 2027, DPSCD will unveil a new school at the same location. The $48 million project is expected to serve 500 students. The new school is projected to be a Pre-K through 8th grade elementary and middle school. 

One of the unresolved questions community members and DPSCD are honing in on is what this new school in Southwest Detroit should be called. After receiving a multitude of suggestions from the community and activists, the district opened up the “naming” process to the community. 

Over the past months, focus groups were created charging young people in Southwest to come up with some names for the new school. 

At the March 24th virtual community meeting, the district released a survey for local Detroits to vote and provide input for the names that have been compiled. It has come down to three–Escuela Esperanza, Southwestern Elementary-Middle School, Frida Kahlo International Academy

In the survey you can also submit your own name and give an explanation on why yours should be considered, as well. 

Angeles Cuevas, Detroit native and community member of the Springwells neighborhood is hopeful about the development and has already voted on the name she sees best fit for the school. 

“Education has always been a pillar for families around Southwest”, said Cuevas. “Escuela Esperanza is a name rooted in perseverance and hope, something that Southwest natives identify with at our core because building this neighborhood has truly been an uphill battle and hope is what keeps us.”

Detroiters can still vote on the name until Tuesday, April 6th. Voting for the name of the new school can be found at: https://bit.ly/SWNamingSurvey

Portions of this story were produced with the help of AI and reviewed by journalists.

The design for the new school is centered on creating a “multicultural education space” that reflects the diverse heritage of Southwest Detroit.

Multicultural Design Elements

  • Exterior Murals: The building’s precast concrete envelope is designed to serve as a canvas for large-scale murals created by local Detroit artists, specifically intended to celebrate Spanish, Middle Eastern, and African cultures.
  • Cultural “Wayfinding”: Inside the school, the design uses specific color palettes and patterns to help students navigate the building while subtly referencing the community’s cultural themes.

  • The “Heart” of the School: The Instructional Media Center (IMC) is designed as an open, inviting hub located right off the main entry. It is intended to host both student learning and public community events.

  • Vibrant Music Spaces: The music rooms include colorful acoustic panels designed to reflect a sense of “joy and vibrance,” aligning with the community’s celebratory traditions.

  • Integration with the Joe Louis Greenway A standout feature of the new site is its phys- ical connection to the Joe Louis Greenway, a 27.5-mile loop of trails connecting Detroit, Hamtramck, Highland Park, and Dearborn.

  • The “Parklet”: The school site includes a dedicated public parklet that acts as a direct gateway to the greenway, encouraging students and neighbors to use the trail for walking and biking.

  • Outdoor Learning: The site plan incorporates open lawn spaces and outdoor play areas (like the youth soccer field and basketball courts) that sit adjacent to the trail, effectively making the school a community “anchor” along the greenway route.

  • Safety: While the school connects to the public trail, it maintains a protected interior courtyard specifically for Pre-K and Kindergarten students to ensure a secure play environment.

History

  • Original Name: The school opened in Southwest Detroit in 1918 as Woodrow Wilson School, originally serving as an elementary school.
  • Transitions: It later became an intermediate-only school in 1931.

  • Renaming: At the end of the 2006-2007 school year, the Woodrow Wilson building closed and was replaced by a K-8 program called the Phoenix Academy.

  • Closure and Future: The school eventually transitioned to a charter school before closing permanently in 2016. A new school is planned for the same site, scheduled to open in 2027.

Cultivating community for future generations:

Detroiters Vote on Name for New School in Southwest Detroit

Después de una serie de reuniones comunitarias, el martes 24 de marzo de 2026, residentes de Southwest Detroit se reunieron de manera virtual para dialogar sobre la etapa final de la planeación de una nueva escuela que se construirá en el vecindario de Springwells, en el antiguo sitio de Phoenix Academy.

Phoenix Academy comenzó como Woodrow Wilson School, operada por Detroit Public School Community District (DPSCD). Cuando Wilson cerró en 2007, el edificio reabrió como Phoenix Academy y más adelante se convirtió en una escuela charter, antes de cerrar en 2016 debido a baja inscripción y bajo rendimiento académico.

En los años siguientes, el edificio permaneció vacío y sufrió robos, incendios y ocupación ilegal, lo que finalmente llevó a miembros de la comunidad a organizarse para exigir algo más—algo mejor para el barrio.

En 2027, DPSCD inaugurará una nueva escuela en el mismo lugar. El proyecto, con una inversión de 48 millones de dólares, está diseñado para atender a 500 estudiantes. Se proyecta que la nueva escuela ofrezca educación desde preescolar (Pre-K) hasta octavo grado.

Una de las preguntas que aún están por resolverse, y en la que tanto la comunidad como DPSCD están enfocando su atención, es cómo se llamará esta nueva escuela en Southwest Detroit. Tras recibir numerosas sugerencias de residentes y activistas, el distrito abrió el proceso de selección del nombre a la comunidad.

En los últimos meses, se formaron grupos focales que dieron a jóvenes de Southwest la tarea de proponer nombres para la nueva escuela.

Durante la reunión virtual del 24 de marzo, el distrito presentó una encuesta para que residentes de Detroit voten y den su opinión sobre los nombres recopilados. La decisión final se ha reducido a tres opciones: Escuela Esperanza, Southwestern Elementary-Middle School y Frida Kahlo International Academy.

La encuesta también permite proponer un nombre adicional y explicar por qué debería ser considerado.

Angeles Cuevas, originaria de Detroit y residente del vecindario de Springwells, expresó su entusiasmo por el proyecto y ya emitió su voto por el nombre que considera más adecuado para la escuela.

“La educación siempre ha sido un pilar para las familias de Southwest”, dijo Cuevas. “Escuela Esperanza es un nombre con raíces en la perseverancia y la esperanza, algo con lo que quienes somos de aquí nos identificamos profundamente, porque construir este barrio ha sido una lucha constante, y la esperanza es lo que nos mantiene adelante.”

Los residentes de Detroit aún pueden votar por el nombre hasta el martes 6 de abril. La votación está disponible en: https://bit.ly/SWNamingSurvey

Algunas partes de esta historia fueron elaboradas con el apoyo de inteligencia artificial y revisadas por periodistas.

El diseño de la nueva escuela está centrado en crear un “espacio educativo multicultural” que refleje la diversidad de herencias en Southwest Detroit.

Elementos de diseño multicultural

  • Murales exteriores: La estructura de concreto prefabricado del edificio está diseñada para funcionar como un lienzo para murales a gran escala creados por artistas locales de Detroit, con el propósito de celebrar las culturas latina, del Medio Oriente y africana.
    • Señalización cultural (“wayfinding”): En el interior, el diseño utiliza paletas de colores y patrones específicos para ayudar a los estudiantes a orientarse dentro del edificio, al mismo tiempo que hace referencia sutil a los temas culturales de la comunidad.
    • El “corazón” de la escuela: El Instructional Media Center (IMC) está diseñado como un espacio abierto y acogedor ubicado justo en la entrada principal. Está pensado para servir tanto al aprendizaje estudiantil como a eventos comunitarios.
    • Espacios musicales vibrantes: Los salones de música incluyen paneles acústicos coloridos que reflejan una sensación de “alegría y vitalidad”, en sintonía con las tradiciones festivas de la comunidad.
  • Integración con el Joe Louis Greenway: Una de las características más destacadas del nuevo sitio es su conexión directa con el Joe Louis Greenway, un circuito de senderos de 27.5 millas que conecta Detroit, Hamtramck, Highland Park y Dearborn.
  • El “parklet”: El terreno de la escuela incluirá un pequeño parque público que funcionará como acceso directo al sendero, fomentando que estudiantes y vecinos lo utilicen para caminar y andar en bicicleta.
  • Aprendizaje al aire libre: El diseño incorpora áreas verdes abiertas y espacios recreativos exteriores —como un campo de fútbol juvenil y canchas de baloncesto— junto al sendero, convirtiendo a la escuela en un punto clave para la comunidad a lo largo de la ruta.
  • Seguridad: Aunque la escuela estará conectada al sendero público, contará con un patio interior protegido especialmente para estudiantes de Pre-K y kínder, garantizando un entorno seguro para el juego.

Historia
A continuación, algunos datos clave sobre la historia de las escuelas en este sitio:

  • Nombre original: La escuela abrió en Southwest Detroit en 1918 como Woodrow Wilson School, inicialmente como escuela primaria.
  • Transiciones: En 1931, pasó a ser una escuela intermedia.
  • Cambio de nombre: Al final del ciclo escolar 2006-2007, el edificio de Woodrow Wilson cerró y fue reemplazado por un programa de K-8 llamado Phoenix Academy.
  • Cierre y futuro: Posteriormente, la escuela se convirtió en una charter antes de cerrar de manera definitiva en 2016. Ahora se planea una nueva escuela en el mismo sitio, con apertura programada para 2027.
