$13M Pre-K centers on 600 kiddos in San Marcos

SAN MARCOS – San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District broke ground on a new pre-kindergarten campus at the site of the now-demolished old Bowie Elementary School at 1225 N. SH 123.

The 69,000-sf campus will accommodate 600 students and include 27 classrooms, special education classrooms, computer labs, a music room, activity room and library.

The $12.7 million construction of the pre-kindergarten center was approved in a bond. The new pre-kindergarten campus will be the district’s first campus dedicated solely to the early childhood development program.

The new campus is being built with the anticipation of an expansion of the school district’s pre-kindergarten and Head Start programs, currently housed at Hernandez Intermediate.
