Crandall Middle School, located on a 27 acre site in the Heartland Development, is a unique facility for Crandall ISD. Flexibility and adaptability were major design themes from the early phases of conception and design. The school is focused on Fine Arts, and features a doublesided stage flanked by the cafeteria and gymnasium. The gymnasium was designed as the primary auditorium space and will seat 1,900 occupants. Flexible labs are centered in the academic wing, able to transform into a science lab, computer lab or makerspace, depending on the need. The library shelving will be distributed throughout the academic wing, with the circulation desk guarding entry at the 2story Student Commons.
The 193,000 sf school will house 1,171 students, and will break ground in Spring of 2021 and will open its doors for students in Fall of 2022. Contractor: Gallagher Construction Services
