Alma Brewer Strawn Elementary School

Student enrollment has continued to increase in LISD. This has been particularly evident at the elementary school level. PK-5th grade enrollment is now over 2,600 students. The combined functional capacity for these campuses is just under 2,600 students. As a result, the bond program included funding for a new elementary campus. The facility will be designed for an initial student capacity of 500. Core spaces, such as the library, cafeteria, etc., will be design to allow for expansion to 700 students.
