Rockwall ISD Cain Middle School Parking Lot Addition

Cain Middle School in Rockwall has completed a parking lot addition, a project that passed its final TDLR accessibility inspection in August 2026. The construction is finished, and the site at 6620 FM3097 in Rockwall, TX 75032, is ready for use. This new construction project added 55,000 square feet of paved space to the existing school grounds.

Project Scope and Ownership

Rockwall ISD served as the owner of record for this privately funded project on private land. The scope of work was strictly limited to the parking lot addition, with no changes to the main building structure. Corgan was the design firm of record, overseeing the planning and review process. The estimated cost for the project was $50,000, resulting in a cost of $1 per square foot.

The construction timeline was short and efficient. Work began in May 2026, with a scheduled completion date of July 2026. The project was registered with TDLR in June 2026, and plan review was completed in the same month. The final inspection was passed in August 2026, marking the end of the construction phase.
