Beeville Independent School District (BISD) in Beeville, Texas, in collaboration with Pfluger Architects and Spawglass General Contractors, recently commenced construction on a new elementary school designed to consolidate two aging schools into one modern campus.

Following years of planning, bond proposals, and the approval of a $62 million bond by voters in Spring 2024, the new Beeville Elementary School will serve 1,200 students when it opens in August 2026.

Designed by Pfluger Architects, this campus marks the beginning of a long-awaited transformation for the district, creating a modern, fully enclosed facility designed to foster creativity and collaboration. The new 108,100-square-foot Beeville Elementary School at 1799 N. Fenner Street will replace the current Fadden-McKeown-Chambliss (FMC) and R.A. Hall Elementary Schools, both of which have served the community for over five decades. In addition to indoor classrooms and collaboration spaces, the campus will include 51,000 square feet of outdoor learning and natural play areas.

Pfluger Architects worked closely with Beeville ISD and the district’s Community Advisory Committee – a group of parents, teachers, administrators, and community members – in the bond planning process. Together, they asked big questions about enrollment growth, safety, and facility conditions and built a plan that reflects the community’s priorities.

The new facility offers Beeville students advanced learning spaces and state-of-the-art technology in a completely enclosed, secure environment, with designated learning hubs and collaborative spaces designed to enhance the educational experience. Once the new campus is completed in August 2026, R.A. Hall Elementary will be demolished and FMC Elementary will be repurposed for other district educational uses.
