Dripping Springs ISD breaks ground on second high school

Dripping Springs ISD marked a milestone last week with a groundbreaking ceremony for its second high school. The future campus site is adjacent to Cypress Springs Elementary on Darden Hill Road.
The ceremony featured remarks from Superintendent Dr. Holly Morris-Kuentz, Board President Dr. Stefani Reinold, and several DSISD students. The Sycamore Springs Middle School band performed for attendees, who were also offered light refreshments.
Voters authorized construction of the new campus through a May 2025 bond election, building on a 2023 bond program that funded the initial design work. The facility is designed to serve 2,500 students in grades 9–12 and is projected to open for the 2028–29 school year.
The approximately 506,000-square-foot main building will be accompanied by baseball and softball fields, tennis courts, two practice fields, a band practice lot, an agricultural barn, and a sub-varsity competition stadium.
