College Station ISD Board And Administrators Discuss The Upcoming Construction Of The Second Phase Of The District’s Career And Technology Center

November’s meeting of the College Station ISD school board included an extended discussion of the upcoming construction of the second phase of the district’s career and technology education (CTE) complex. Administrators addressed board questions about the decision to move cosmetology to CTE because of being able to create more space versus the original plan to locate that program at College View High School. Superintendent Tim Harkrider said instead of 25 cosmetology students at College View, there could be room for 50 at the CTE complex. Board members were also told the second phase would allow CSISD students to take CTE programs in their home district instead of Bryan ISD, which Harkrider costs CSISD an estimated $150,000 to $175,000 dollars a year plus the cost of transporting students. Construction is scheduled to start in the summer of 2025 and be completed in the summer of 2026. The second phase of CSISD’s CTE complex will also have room for ag mechanics, animal science, auto tech, construction, veterinary tech, and welding programs. The project also includes a multipurpose arena. Click HERE to read and download presentation materials from the November 19, 2024 CSISD board meeting.
