Norwin High School Pool Renovation

Revitalized for Competitive Swimming, Education & Community Recreation

Located in Irwin, Pennsylvania, the Norwin High School natatorium recently underwent a full-scale renovation led by Wallover Architects (Architect of Record). Originally built over 50 years ago, the six-lane competition pool has been completely transformed to support NFHS-compliant competitive events, educational swim programming, and student recreation.

From structural upgrades to modern mechanical systems, this renovation delivers a state-of-the-art aquatic environment designed to serve student-athletes, physical education programs, and the broader aquatics community.
