So Where is the New Proposed High School Location?
So where is the new high school location? Since before Thanksgiving, there has been a lot of speculation about where it will be. Some persons have told me it is going East of the Highway. Others say it’s going North West. So where is it going?
The location of the proposed high school is still undetermined. At this time, a Site Selection Committee, appointed by the Hays CISD School Board, is reviewing four possible locations. At the end of their review process, the committee will recommend a location to the Board of Trustees.
The committee may pick any of the four locations. Or they could decide none of the locations are suitable, and request the Board obtain another site.
Now, I need your help. In fact the entire Hays CISD Board and the Site Selection Committee needs your input. Please help us determine where the school needs to go. Here is how you can help.
The selection committee has created draft selection criteria.
Tell us what you think! There are three ways you can provide input.
- Come to a public hearing. At the hearing, you can provide verbal or written comment to the committee.

So what happens after the Site Selection Committee makes its recommendation to the Hays CISD School Board? The Board will decide to accept, amend or reject the recommendation. If the recommendation is approved, the Board will likely call a bond election in May 2017. The school could open as early as the 2019-2020 school year.
