The addition includes eight additional classrooms, restrooms and storage for teachers. With the increase in capacity, the student population will be 811.
It looks like the City Council can be thanked for increasing school taxes since they approved all the low income housing along Williams Drive. Ford Elementary is just off of Williams Drive west of HEB.
As the City focuses on affordable housing, keep in mind that as more families move to Georgetown, more school capacity will be necessary. This in turn will require more funding, which currently comes primarily from property taxes.
