History and Design
This building was built in 1995 adjacent to an open field that would later become the site for Thomas R. Grover Middle School This was recently after the Plainsboro and West Windsor school districts merged, when a district expansion project was initiated to accommodate the influx of new students entering the area. It uses a modern architecture, and its outside is a facade of reddish-brown bricks and a black-letter Times New Roman sign with the school's name, surrounded by a circular, light gray outline in brick cement. The building is two stories high.
This school was once used as a school for grades Kindergarten-4 but due to the construction of a new elementary school (Town Center Elementary School), Village Elementary School was then converted to a school for fourth to fifth graders.

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or design:
“To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“Westerners inherit
A design for living
Deeper into matter—
Not without due patter
Of a great misgiving.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
