After a 20-year wait, Council Rock High School South in Northampton Township will finally get its own stadium following a unanimous 9-0 vote by the Council Rock School Board to approve contracts for the $7 million phase two project. Before a standing-room-only crowd that erupted in applause, the board awarded $313,700 to Boyle Construction for project management and $540,000 to Marotta/Main for the design of a new, 3,000-seat stadium featuring bathrooms, a concession stand and a press box. The work will complete a project that began in 2021 with installation of a turf field, a track and bleachers, and will give South — currently the only high school in Bucks County without a stadium — a home venue for sports, band competitions and outdoor graduations. Since opening in 2002, its teams have played home games at rival Council Rock North. District officials said the project can be funded within existing debt service without raising taxes, and board members cited strong community support, including a 1,000-signature petition, as a key factor in advancing the long-awaited plan.
