FOSSINGTON, Pa. — The Pennsbury School District has named two firms to compete as architects for its new high school plan.
Schools Superintendent Thomas A. Smith said the last two firms interviewed Thursday night were KCBA and Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates, one of which was selected to design the new high school.

The person in charge said everyone will participate in a one-hour interview process.
Interviews will be held Thursday evening at 7 pm at Fallsington Elementary School (the same location as the district’s monthly board meeting).
KCBA will be available for interviews at 7 p.m., and Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates will be available for interviews at 8 p.m.
Finalists will be selected and approved at the March 21 regular meeting of the Board of Directors.
“It’s important to remember that these are just concepts,” Smith said. “The final design will take a year and will likely look very different.”
A public forum was held last month at which four architects presented plans for the new high school. Click here to view their demo.
Last year, the Pennsbury School Board voted 8-1 to build a new high school rather than renovate its west campus.
The vote authorizes the district to hire an architect and use the building for a school that would open in the 2029 school year at a cost that could range from $250 million to $277 million.
Smith said the district received proposals from nine architects before identifying four finalists who “bring unique vision and experience” to the construction of the new high school.
