School Construction
Project Scope
The Board of Trustees approves school locations prior to construction based on demographic projections. As of right now, Elementary School #32 is proposed to be located in the west part of the district in the Travisso neighborhood [map]. Design for this school is underway. The school is projected to open in 2028, using the same innovative design used for recent elementary schools.
The timing of all future construction projects is dependent upon multiple factors, including enrollment trends, facility needs, and any related Board action.
