This week’s Bryan ISD school board meeting included a discussion about the quality of the soil under the site of what will be built as the district’s third intermediate school.
Consulting architect Ron Bailey’s suggestion to save $1 million dollars on the type of foundation for the two story building was the decision made by superintendent Christie Whitbeck.
The less expensive alternative was supported by board vice president Julie Harlin.
BISD’s third intermediate school, to be built next to Bonham elementary, will have a foundation design that is similar to the city of Bryan’s new sports and events center at Midtown Park.
