Cook Elementary School
As part of the 2022 Bond, Cook Elementary School has begun construction on upgrades to its open-concept floor plan, adding full walls and doors between learning areas, improving overall safety and the student experience. Additionally, the campus is receiving improvements to outdoor learning spaces, and is being 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 at the start of the 2025-26 school year.
A Campus Architectural Team, composed of campus staff, parents and community members, has worked with the district and project team to determine design details to best meet the needs of Cook’s students, staff and community.
