Haven’t heard anything but I’d assume at some point they would add parking where all the portable buildings are that are currently housing our 5th graders and Oak Forest Elementary due to Harvey. Our 6th graders are at the Junior High with the 7th and 8th graders. FEMA funding is tied up in that situation to get a new middle school and a new Oak Forest Elementary. Our schools are just as old as Nederlands so we feel y’all’s pain. It’ll eventually get worked out. Good Luck passing that bond. Michele 1 Quote

The turf is suppose to be finished by August weather permitting but you know how that goes in Southeast Texas! And yes all the kids are pumped. All Junior High and High School Football games will be played on it including Soccer. Come on Football Season! Michele 1 Quote

So, lots of time to work with, but no clue if they've started yet or not. I was just at the High School earlier but didn't even think about driving back there to see if they are working yet or not.

vidor96pirates Posted June 10, 2019 Report Posted June 10, 2019 The last time i drove by there a couple of weeks ago they had everything all dug up. I'm not sure what the process is but I guess they would have to level the ground and then start the slab. Quote

Hagar Posted June 15, 2019 Author Report Posted June 15, 2019 Have no idea what they’re putting in the center of the football field, but they’ll have to get fancy to beat the guy (now retired I hear) who used to paint it for HC. He was very good. Quote
