Tredyffrin Easttown School District

multi-year playgrounds replacement efforts

Tredyffrin Township 

TESD’s elementary schools’ playground equipment over the years has been generously provided and replaced by their PTOs. The PTO has worked hard to raise funds for this - a big task for them to

take on, and to do so in a manner consistent for all schools and kids. To provide equity and accessibility across all schools the Facilities Committee and School Board tasked the team with providing a

plan of replacement of playgrounds for all 5 existing schools and the new elementary school.

New playgrounds will feature:

• Safe turf

• Weather-resistant, gentle materials

• Bright colors

• Shading

• Accessibility for all students

• Upgraded surfacing to allow for all access from

an accessible route from the school

• Access to areas that do not require climbing.

• Installation of play equipment in zones that

would be more calming/less noise

• Tactile, sensory & thought-provoking play areas

• Accessible swings were provided as part of the

swing sets.
