Projections indicate enrollment at Takoma Park Middle School will exceed capacity by 150 seats or more by the end of the six-year period. An FY 2017 appropriation was approved to begin the planning for this 25 classroom addition. An FY 2019 appropriation was approved for construction funds. An FY 2020 appropriation was approved for the balance of funding for this addition. This project is scheduled to be completed by September 2020. A transfer of $1.3 million from this project will go towards the Charles W. Woodward High School reopening project to address a local funding gap due to reduced state aid eligibility. This transfer will not affect this project's scope of work.

MCPS asserts that this project conforms to the requirement of relevant local plans, as required by the Maryland Economic Growth, Resource Protection and Planning Act.
