March 7, 2024 (Crosby, TX) - Today, Superintendent Patterson and members of the Operations and Finance teams went over the final floor plan review for the expansion of Crosby High School.

Program Manager representative, Robert Arcement with Lockwood, Andrews, and Newnam, reviewed the changes made to schematic drawings. The new academic wing will feature two floors, each with 16 classrooms and 4 labs, for a total of 32 classrooms and 8 labs. The CTE section of Crosby High School will also be expanded to the south side of Crosby High School.

The review process during the last few months was able to add 4 classrooms to the original plans, by reducing unnecessary collaborative and flex spaces. 4 additional classrooms is room for approximately 100 additional students. In total, the CHS expansion will provide room for 900 additional students.

The CHS expansion project will go out for construction bids in the next few weeks, followed by final approval by the Board of Trustees. Construction is expected to begin in June with completion in November 2025.
