Round Rock ISD broke ground Sept. 24 on Success High School, which upon completion will accommodate about 400 students.
SHS, located at 500 Gattis School Road, is expected to be complete in July 2014 and to open for the 2014–15 school year. The facility will be 69,000 square feet and includes a food service kitchen and a child care facility. Round Rock ISD's board of trustees approved $25 million of the district's fund balance for construction in August 2012.
SHS Principal Thomasine Stewart said the new campus will allow for increased enrollment, expansion and more student resources. In June, SHS already had 65 students on a waiting list.
"This has been one of my dreams in the making because this is where my heart is," Stewart said. "To see this come to fruition—I just know that we are going to be able to do some fantastic things for the kids. I couldn't be prouder of the district or of my kids."
