DSISD holds discussions for second high school

Dripping Springs ISD is set to begin design work on its second high school — a project approved by voters in the May 2023 bond.

The high school design process will begin with Community Input Meetings scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 17 and Tuesday Jan. 23 at the Center for Learning & Leadership board room (300 Sportsplex Drive). A morning and evening session will be held on each of the two dates: 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. All DSISD stakeholders, including those who do not have children in the district, are invited to find a time that best fits their schedule and attend. Each session will include information on the high school design process, the latest district demographics and a review of current high school programming. Attendees will have the opportunity to provide feedback to help create a shared vision for the design of the DSISD’s second high school.

The district’s second high school will accommodate 2,500 students in grades 9—12 on Darden Hill Road in Driftwood. At this point, only the design portion of the second high school has been approved by voters. Construction for the second high school would need to be funded through a future bond program. Information and updates on the 2023 bond can be found at dsisdtx.us/bond2023.
