Summary
The bond progress committee reported site visits to Reeves Elementary, Denton High’s new multipurpose facility and High School No. 5 and said projects are on schedule or near budget; several sites remain active through the summer.
The Denton ISD bond progress committee told trustees Tuesday that construction and site work across multiple bond projects are proceeding and that several projects are at or near schedule and budget.
Committee chair Doctor Anthony (bond progress committee member) reported that the committee toured multiple sites on May 21, including Denton High School’s new multiuse facility, Reeves Elementary and the construction site for High School No. 5. “Reeves Elementary is practically finished,” Anthony said. “Braswell High School is under construction now. Things are moving according to schedule.”
Why it matters: The district has roughly two dozen active construction sites tied to recent bond authorizations. Trustees were shown time‑lapse and drone footage and said several projects would be completed in time for fall opening.
Details and conditions: Presenters noted heavy grading and geotechnical work at some sites, described geothermal wells and solar installations on new elementary schools, and said ongoing concrete pours and utility connections sometimes require overnight work on major corridors. Brandon Boiter (construction staff) described more than 20 active sites and noted weather and utility timing remain schedule risks on some projects.
What the board learned: Trustees asked for clarifications about specific project fronts and construction sequencing; staff confirmed that playgrounds, turf installations and final road access remain in progress at Reeves and other sites. No formal action was taken; the committee will continue regular updates.
