Rockwall ISD Board Approves Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP)

On April 3, 2023, the Rockwall ISD Board of Trustees approved the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the New Amanda Rochell Elementary School in the total amount of $38,576,101.00.  The District’s construction management team – coordinating with the architectural consultant firm and the construction manager – has worked diligently over the past several months to reduce the total overall cost of the new facility while still delivering on the concept presented to voters in November 2021.

The GMP approved by the Board of Trustees includes final design elements for the site that include an approximate 79,000 square foot new building, parking, on-site roadways, regulation-size gymnasiums, cafeteria including performing arts stage, in addition to many other amenities that provide a wonderful educational environment for District students.

The District anticipates the start of construction to begin in spring 2023 with a final estimated completion date of July 2024.  The new Amanda Rochell Elementary School is projected to open for students in August 2024.
