Wichita Falls ISD is in the design and development stage for two new high schools and their athletics and fine arts facilities.
District officials aim to bid out projects, funded by two separate bond measures, in October and start moving dirt in November, WFISD Superintendent Mike Kuhrt said. The goal was to fast track this planning for the athletic fields, Kuhrt said after a recent school board meeting.
David Potter of BYSP Architects of Wichita Falls presented to the school board the schematics for athletics and recreational facilities at the meeting.
The facilities will be paid for by a $13.585 million bond issue approved May 1 by voters.
The suggested names making the short list for Wichita Falls ISD s two new high schools don t include any local legends, but one of them is a nod to veterans.
The School Naming Committee met Monday to sift through a long list of over 100 names for the high schools to open in fall 2024.

The 40-member committee was divided into two subcommittees, which chose five names for each high schools.
The names will go to the WFISD School Board for deliberation. But trustees can choose from the long list of over 100 names or nominate a moniker of their own choosing.
It s a cut and dried decision for Ed Stein.
He plans to vote no May 1 on the $13.585 million bond proposition for athletics and recreational facilities for two new high schools in Wichita Falls ISD.
Stein is passionate about opposing tax hikes and leads what he calls the no campaign. The group consistently fights bond proposals that would mean higher property taxes for Wichitans.
And the proposed bond would bring an estimated 1.5 cent tax hike per $100 of property value for WFISD residents.
“We want to teach the school district that no means no, Stein said.
He pointed out that WFISD voters already turned down a $13.585 million bond for athletics and recreational facilities Nov. 3.
