As part of the 2022 Bond, Cook Elementary School will receive upgrades to its open-concept floor plan, adding full walls and doors between learning areas to improve safety and the student experience. Additionally, the campus will receive improvements to outdoor learning spaces and be provided space for a school mental health center, and community pantry. These renovations will be some of the first bond projects to be completed as part of the 2022 Bond, expected to open to students in January 2025. 

A Campus Architectural Team, composed of campus staff, parents and community members, will work with the district and project team to determine design details to best meet the needs of Cook’s students, staff and community.

Historically Underutilized Business Program (HUB)

Austin ISD's Historically Underutilized Business Program is committed to advancing equity in contracting, ensuring HUB firms can compete fairly and participate in construction-related, bond-funded projects. The HUB Program 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 HUB programs in the nation, providing tools for minority- and women-owned businesses to do business with the district.

Sustainability

Sustainability is top priority for all projects implemented through the 2022 Bond. All modernization projects will be required to reach Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) and Austin Energy Green Building (AEGB) certification.
