San Angelo Central Oaks Street Moving to Main Campus in '24

 

SAN ANGELO, TX - On Monday, Dec. 18, the San Angelo ISD Board of Trustees voted 6 to 0 in favor of the administration's recommendation to relocate all core academic programs from Central High School on Oakes to Central High School main campus starting in August 2024. 

Central High School on Oakes will remain in ownership by San Angelo ISD and be utilized for athletics and physical education courses and some of our Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses such as welding. 

Renovations will be completed at Central High School main campus without a bond measure to add additional classroom spaces. 

The movement of academic programs helps support individual student learning by reducing lost instructional time due to students in transit between main and oakes campuses throughout the school day. 

Over the last year and a half, SAISD examined trends relating to instructional time for our students at Oakes. 

On average, students lose up to 15 minutes of instruction per class period each time they transition and commute between campuses.

Additionally, by relocating the academic programs to the main campus, San Angelo ISD could save up to $1 million per year in operational costs. 

These savings would allow the district to better utilize the funds by reinvesting into more instructional resources and/or staff.

They already own most of San Angelo, so it wouldn't be anything unexpected. Government subsidized health care, and at that the worst possible... try suing them for malpractice(which happens daily there). It isn't possible.
