During a recent government meeting, discussions centered on the pressing need for upgrades and compliance at Dragon Stadium, a facility utilized by multiple schools in the district. Trustee Harrison raised concerns about the stadium's current state, particularly regarding its accessibility for individuals with disabilities.

The conversation highlighted the necessity of making the press box ADA compliant, which would require a complete replacement of the existing structure. Estimates suggest that such a project could cost between $5 million and $6 million. However, the broader issue of ensuring the entire stadium meets ADA standards was also addressed, with some estimates indicating that achieving full compliance could require up to $30 million.

Trustees expressed skepticism about the feasibility of funding such extensive renovations in the current economic climate, with some questioning whether now is the right time to pursue a master plan change for Round Rock High School, which shares the campus with Dragon Stadium. The discussions underscored the importance of addressing deferred maintenance and the need for a comprehensive approach to facility upgrades, emphasizing that a large-use facility should not lack accessibility features.

As the meeting concluded, the urgency for a detailed cost analysis and a strategic plan for the stadium's improvements became clear, reflecting a commitment to ensuring that all district facilities are safe and accessible for all students and community members.
