📰About Waterford Oaks ES Reno

Cedar Hill ISD is executing a $12,100,000 renovation of Waterford Oaks Elementary School at 401 N Waterford Oaks Dr in Dallas County. This project, filed under the name Waterford Oaks ES Reno, involves the alteration of 71,173 sq ft of existing school infrastructure. The work is scheduled to finish in March 2027, following a construction start date of January 2026.

Huckabee serves as the design firm of record for this substantial upgrade. The registered accessibility specialist, Ross A Thomas, oversees the project’s compliance with state standards. TDLR completed the plan review phase in March 2026, clearing the path for physical construction to proceed on the public land. The estimated cost of $170 per square foot reflects the complexity of renovating an active educational facility rather than building from scratch.

Scale and Context

This renovation is significantly larger than typical filings in the region. Among 32,512 registered renovation projects in Dallas County, this one sits in the top quarter for estimated cost. The scheduled build window of 421 days is also longer than the county median of 92 days for similar work types. These metrics indicate a major capital improvement project rather than a minor repair or small-scale alteration.

Cedar Hill ISD is actively managing multiple capital projects. The district has four other TDLR-registered projects totaling $23,900,000, including renovations at Plummer Elementary and High Pointe Elementary. This portfolio approach suggests a coordinated effort to modernize school facilities across the district. The involvement of public funds ensures that the project adheres to strict federal and state oversight standards.

The location is in a well-established residential area. Census estimates for ZIP 75104 show a population of about 49,425 residents and a median household income of $91,147. The housing stock is mostly owner-occupied, with a median home value of $274,900. This stable community context supports the long-term investment in local educational infrastructure that this renovation represents.
