L.D. Bell High School - Bond 23 Updates
Construction Plan
The construction timeline for L.D. Bell has a couple phases, allowing school to continue while the new structure is built:
- Phase 0 (5 months) - Move portable buildings, build new tennis courts and parking areas, and prepare for major construction. Most work is on the southwest and southeast corners of L.D. Bell's campus.
- Phase 1 (36 months) - Construction of the new building. Most work is on the north and northeast areas of the campus, between the existing building and the baseball field.
- Phase 2 (12 months) - Demolition of old building; complete remaining work, such as parking lots, practice fields, and landscaping.
Note: All construction timelines are always estimates. Construction timelines can be impacted by many factors, such as extreme weather, supply chain issues, special events, and more.
In November 2023, HEB ISD voters approved a bond that included a proposal to rebuild L.D. Bell High School. The construction plan will accomplish a major rebuild while classes continue on campus, and will bring improvements to educational spaces and campus safety.
