Lowrey School was built in 1927 on seven acres.
Under the 2026 transformational bond, Lowrey School would be replaced with a new school on the property.

About PK-8 schools
Creating preschool through eighth grade buildings will allow students and families to form strong bonds while remaining in their neighborhood school for much longer. Elementary and middle school students would be separated for classes, meals, recess, lineup, and dismissal, but all students could use special spaces like STEM labs, music rooms, and gymnasium-auditoriums. An ADA accessible pool would also be included and a turf athletic field.
Students and families would benefit from staying in the same neighborhood school for up to 10 years – from free GSRP preschool through eighth grade.
