Granbury ISD - Elementary - Brawner

Executive Summary

Brawner Elementary School, originally built in 1993 and renovated in 2021, is in overall good condition. Portable classrooms were added in 2021, and the campus is currently operating at approximately 93% capacity. While the facility is generally well-maintained, minor repairs and maintenance are needed across various building components. A primary concern is soil erosion near roof drains on the exterior, which could potentially lead to foundation issues if not addressed. Additional recommendations include updating interior finishes, resealing the building exterior, and implementing safety and security enhancements. The portable classrooms should be replaced with permanent additions or structures to better support long-term educational needs. The roof system is expected to reach its life expectancy in 2028, and planning for its replacement should begin soon. The HVAC system also requires attention, with 18% of total tonnage nearing or exceeding its life expectancy; a phased replacement plan is advised. With continued maintenance and targeted funding for priority projects, Brawner Elementary School could effectively serve the district for another 20 to 25 years.
