Reno Elementary School

📢 BOND PROJECTS UPDATE – JUNE 2025 Thanks to the support of Springtown ISD voters, we’re moving forward with several exciting projects to support our fast-growing student population and create safe, innovative learning environments across the district. 🏗️ Here’s what’s happening so far: ✔️ Planning is underway for a new elementary school ✔️ Expansion of Springtown Middle School is in progress ✔️ Safety & security upgrades have begun district-wide ✔️ Springtown Elementary renovations are being reviewed ✔️ CTE equipment needs are currently being assessed ✔️ We will soon request Construction Manager Proposals for review 📍 Elementary teachers, principals, and district leaders are partnering with Huckabee Architects to help design the new elementary campus—bringing back ideas from regional school visits to ensure it reflects our community’s values. 🔒 Safety First: Over 400 new high-def security cameras and upgraded access control systems are being installed to enhance student and staff safety. We’re also expanding the Raptor Badge Alert System with live visual alerts to all campuses for faster emergency communication. 🚌 Looking Ahead: We’ll present the formal finance plan to the Board of Trustees on July 8, and the Bond Oversight Committee will begin meeting later this summer to help ensure transparency and accountability every step of the way. 🔗 For more details and ongoing updates, visit: https://www.springtownisd.net/page/springtown-isd-bond
