Austin – Austin ISD officials spent a crowded week, celebrating the celebration of two high schools in high schools.
One of them is at Anderson Secondary School and the other in the northeastern school of the College.
“We will get a new front office, a mental health center, as well as a family resource center,” said Nathan Neil, the northeastern director.
Northeast Secondary School is just one of the many schools that will witness modernization projects from Sanad 2022.
“The spaces in which students learn will also be able to provide them with new technology and further access,” said AISD, Candace Hunter.
Hunter says that planning for the future is essential, even if it takes some time to complete these projects.
“Although students currently in the space may not be able to use it, they will have the brothers of cousins, uncles, and what, they will enjoy the space,” Hunter said.
In 2022, voters agreed to a $ 2.4 billion bond package, which will eventually affect more than 110 university universities.
“We will have 18 projects in construction this fall,” said Michael Man, CEO of the Building Department. “We are really proud of that, are really excited about these universities, we had 5 landscapes in May.”
Man says with many projects in this association, it will take a little longer than usual to complete all projects. He expects everything to be completed in these bonds in about 6 years.
“We have about $ 400 million spending from 2.4 billion,” said Man.
One of the largest projects at Travis Early College High School ended, as the crews are preparing to pour the foundation for a new school.
“This will be a completely new sanctuary, from buildings, to athletics fields, to CTE, to parking lots,” said Man.
How much will this project cost?
Man says about $ 250 million to Travis Echs, the new high school will be built behind the current school for the first stage, then in the second stage, the old high school will be demolished.
The campus will be updated and opened in stages with the opening of the final stage for the start of the academic year 2028-29.
Austin ISD has many projects that are made, from safety and promotions, to HVAC and new plumbing systems.
“During the next year or so, societies will start seeing things out of the ground. We will start seeing some scraps of the tape,” said Man.
