As part of the 2022 Bond, Allison Elementary School will receive a full modernization of the existing campus at its current location. The new building will feature flexible learning spaces to support a variety of learning styles, designed by and for the Allison community. Project design began in spring 2023 and the modernized campus is anticipated to open to students in spring 2026. The new building will be built on the same site, immediately to the east of the existing school. During construction, school activities will remain in the existing building.

Community Meeting Update

Allison Elementary School's construction community meeting was held on Wednesday, June 5, 2024.

  • The project team, Rogers O’Brien Construction and McKinney York Architects presented information on the construction impact and milestone schedule.
  • The first phase of construction will consist of building the new school, and its associated infrastructure, and then demolishing the existing building. A new parking lot and additional infrastructure improvements will be made to the site during Phase 2.
  • The community was informed that Allison will be one of the schools to receive solar panels as a part of the US Department of Energy Renew America’s School Grant Program. More details are within the presentation.

Some images of the school’s design that were shared during the meeting are pictured below. More detailed renderings can be located within the meeting presentation.

Economic Opportunity Office (EOO)

Austin ISD's Economic Opportunity Office is committed to advancing equity in contracting, ensuring HUB firms can compete fairly and participate in construction-related, bond-funded projects. The Economic Opportunity Office’s supplier diversity program (measured through HUB goals) is a core business strategy for the district, formally adopted by the trustees in August 2016. A HUB is a business that is 51% owned, managed, and controlled by a minority or woman — groups that are historically underrepresented in architecture, construction and other professional services. Austin ISD supports one of the most comprehensive public school supplier diversity programs in the nation, providing tools for minority- and women-owned businesses to do business with the district.

Sustainability

Sustainability is a top priority for all projects implemented through the 2022 Bond. The standard for all full modernization projects will be to reach Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and Austin Energy Green Building (AEGB) certifications.
