Actions to Improve the Educational Environment

The educational environment of the facility is in fair condition. The classrooms & library are undersized by TEA standards. In addition, Maintenance repairs are needed to reseal the building envelope, refresh finished surfaces, and update mechanical systems. Security enhancements to facility should be made, and Improved ADA accessibility compliance to offer an equal educational opportunity to all.
