The work, described as a partial renovation to the high school, passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in October 2026.

The design firm listed in the registration is DFD Architects INC., which also managed several other large-scale healthcare and education facilities across Texas.

Project Scope and Financials

However, the cost per square foot is $69, which is below the county median of $103 per square foot. The scheduled build window was 547 days, significantly longer than the county median of 98 days for similar projects.

Construction began in February 2024, following the completion of plan review in December 2023. The registered accessibility specialist for the project was Darrell Glen Smith. This ensures the facility is not at risk from major flooding events during its operational life.
