Dobie Middle School will receive a Phase 1 (of 2-3) modernization as part of the 2022 Bond. The project design is anticipated to begin in fall 2023 and open in spring 2026. The Campus Architectural Team, composed of campus staff, parents and community members, will work with the district and project team to determine the scope of the modernization in order to best meet the needs of Dobie’s students, staff and community. Dobie will also receive a secure entry vestibule and improvements to HVAC, electrical, roofing and plumbing. 

As a part of the turnaround planning for Dobie Middle School, the Bond project team was tasked with additional improvements to the main building beyond the original Bond project scope to be completed in Summer 2025. These improvements include:

1. Removal of Cafeteria stage rigging and lofts to improve student safety
2. Replace all student restroom partitions to address privacy issues
3. Removal of all locker rooms across the hallways
4. Cut opening and addition of a door to access the serving lines from the Cafeteria
5. Patch and paint of hallway walls
6. Replace hallway ceiling tiles

Dobie Middle School will be utilized as a swing space for Wooldridge Elementary. Wooldridge Elementary is being fully modernized through the 2022 Bond. While Wooldridge Elementary is under construction, those students will temporarily relocate to portables at Dobie Middle School. During this process, Dobie and Wooldridge will remain separate school communities with their own teachers, staff and facilities.
