Preschool Playground Renovation in Newton, Massachusetts

July 6, 2026

We're excited to share the completion of the toddler and preschool playground renovation at Solomon Schechter Day School in Newton, Massachusetts!

Designed to encourage exploration, creativity, and active play, this refreshed outdoor environment features natural logs, poured-in-place rubber surfacing, synthetic turf, and painted asphalt, creating a welcoming space for young learners.

The result is a play area that encourages movement, imagination, and open-ended play while providing a safe and durable environment for everyday use.

This project was made possible through the collaborative efforts of Kaplan Construction, Ashley McGraw Architects, and our team, working together to create an inspiring outdoor environment for the school community.

Thank you to Solomon Schechter Day School for the opportunity to help bring this vision to life.
