Press release by Uvalde CISD

The Uvalde CISD Community Advisory Committee (CAC) and the Uvalde CISD Moving Forward Foundation (MFF) are hosting a preview and presentation on March 21 at the Ham Activity Center to share progress on the new elementary school. The CAC was created to get input from the Uvalde community about where the new school should be built and the design of the new school. The CAC is made up of Uvalde parents, educators, community leaders, and school and district administrators. The MFF was created to raise the funds that will be necessary to build the new elementary school and to build the school. The MFF comprises eight board members, including: Mickey Gerdes, Uvalde High School Class of 1994; Luis Fernandez, UCISD school board president; and Gary Patterson, UCISD interim superintendent.

During the preview, participants will be able to view images of what the building interiors of the new school will look like. During the presentation, CAC members will be sharing information about the process that the CAC has used to receive input from the Uvalde community so they can make recommendations on the schematic design for the new school. Members of the architectural team will share more information about the building interiors and MFF members will be available for any questions about the foundation.
