The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filing outlines a new project for Abbott ISD at 219 1st Street in Hill County. The work is listed as new construction with a total size of 18,000 square feet. Plans include a 6,000-square-foot agricultural facility with shop and exterior work space. A 12,000-square-foot gymnasium will add a weight room and exterior exercise area. The project is scheduled to finish by December 2026 according to the filing.
Location and History
The site is part of the existing Abbott ISD campus, near the intersection of 1st Street and Waco Street. In recent aerial and street-level views, the property shows multiple school buildings with a gym and parking lot already in use. Historic aerial imagery from 1958 reveals a large structure on the same block. It shows the site was developed decades earlier, although the image does not confirm which facilities stood there.
District Context
Abbott ISD serves grades PK through 12 on a single campus in Abbott, a small community in Hill County. Additionally, the district dates back to the late 19th century and has long been the center of local education. This new filing expands the district’s footprint and increases both agricultural education and athletic space for the community.
