Crosby High School construction update confirms timely progress on major additions

Crosby Independent School District (CISD) is making significant strides in enhancing school safety and expanding educational facilities, as highlighted in the recent Board Meeting held on April 23, 2025.

In a key update, the district reported a successful outcome from the Texas Education Agency (TEA) intruder audit conducted on April 16. Superintendent Patterson announced that CISD passed the audit, maintaining a strong safety record across its campuses. This achievement reflects the district's commitment to ensuring secure learning environments for students and staff. One campus is still awaiting its audit, but the overall performance has been commendable.

Additionally, the meeting featured a detailed construction update on the Crosby High School addition. The project includes three main areas: a classroom addition, a career and technical (CT) addition, and a large group instruction space. Progress is evident, with the exterior brickwork completed and the installation of metal panels underway. Inside, contractors are advancing on mechanical, electrical, and plumbing installations, with corridor tile work already in progress.

The CT addition is nearing completion, with site work scheduled to begin next week, allowing for the installation of necessary equipment. The large group instruction area is also being transformed into two new classrooms, pending the installation of an air conditioning system to facilitate flooring work.

Overall, the construction project is on track for completion by November 2025, promising to enhance educational opportunities for students in the district. The board's focus on safety and infrastructure development underscores its dedication to fostering a supportive and secure educational environment for the Crosby community.
