CAMPUS SIZE ANALYSIS

Available area on a school campus is an important issue concerning the efficient, safe, and secure operation of school plants. Limited land availability can negatively affect safety, traffic patterns, separation of bus and parent pickup and drop off, efficiency and future potential for building additions. The Texas Education Agency (TEA) has recommended guidelines for elementary, middle, and high school campuses.  

T.E.A. Recommendations

·         Elementary Schools            

10 acres plus one acre for each 100 students

·         Middle Schools

                    20 acres plus one acre for each 100 students

·         High School

          30 acres plus one acre for each 100 students
