DALLAS, Texas — The Dallas Independent School District (DISD) is considering the purchase of a $13 million piece of land in downtown Dallas to develop a new public school campus.
The proposed campus would consolidate three of DISD’s existing programs into one location, aimed at providing enhanced facilities and resources for students.
District officials confirmed that discussions are underway regarding the acquisition, emphasizing the potential benefits for both students and the district.
The new campus is intended to replace outdated facilities currently housing the programs, creating a more cohesive learning environment.
The location, situated in downtown Dallas, is seen as strategically beneficial, offering accessibility to a diverse student population and aligning with the district’s mission to provide quality education.
Though funding details have not been disclosed, DISD aims to balance this significant investment with its current budget priorities.
Community leaders have expressed support for the proposal, recognizing the potential for improved educational opportunities in the area.
The district plans to engage with parents, students, and other stakeholders to gather feedback as the decision process moves forward.
If approved, the campus development would proceed with a phased approach, including construction, program relocation, and the introduction of new resources for students.
The district has committed to providing regular updates throughout the process.
