Sherman High School will start the new school year with some additional, much-needed classroom space.
The first of two, three-story additions will be ready for the first day of school on August 13, with the second addition set for completion in mid-September.
In all, 33,000 square feet is being added to the campus, which opened in 2021. The design of the additions match the look of the existing building, making the additions appear seamless.
The 20 new classrooms will allow SHS to serve about 525 additional students, bringing the school’s capacity up to approximately 3,213 students. Approximately 900 new parking spaces are also being added to serve the high school and new stadium, which is on track to open in summer 2026.
The construction projects were designed by VLK Architects and completed by CORE Construction. They were funded under the district’s 2023 bond program, approved by voters in May 2023.
