The Roundabout

Good morning!

There’s lots of movement in Woodbury this week, beginning with our top story on the progress and setbacks on the new Math and Science Academy campus set to open for the 2026-27 school year. We also report that the Hudson Road warehouse is officially “off the table” as a potential ICE processing site.

In other news, a 150-unit housing project near Topgolf received approval as the city continues to grow, while Slick City, a new indoor slide park (the biggest among all other franchises), has opened its doors.

Enjoy!

New MSA Middle And High School Advances, K-5 School Delayed

by Manali Shah | Published on Feb. 25, 2026

Woodbury-based Math and Science Academy will operate from its new Bailey Road campus starting in the 2026-27 school year.

“The last few months have been a whirlwind, but we are getting close to completion,” said MSA Executive Director Kate Hinton.

According to Hinton, furniture will arrive sometime in July and they will be able to move things from the current buildings on Radio Drive into the new buildings. The summer weather in July will also enable them to finish outdoor work while classrooms are set up inside the new building.
