Sharpstown High School is receiving $54.9 million for a school that will accommodate 1,300 to 1,500 students. Construction is gearing up with preliminary site work.

The new school will feature a two-story, light-filled atrium, classrooms equipped with modern technology grouped into neighborhoods, flexible learning spaces, a large dining commons, gymnasium, JROTC building and fine arts wing. Site preparation currently is in progress, and underground piping is scheduled to begin in mid-January.

Target completion is set for the first quarter of 2017.
