In September, Sherman ISD hosted ribbon-cutting ceremonies for three brand-new elementary schools: Crutchfield Elementary, Fairview Elementary, and Parker Elementary. RWB Consulting Engineers provided the MEP-T design for each of these state-of-the-art learning environments, supporting the district’s vision for innovation and growth.

These projects were made possible through the $540 million bond program approved by voters in 2023, aimed at expanding capacity and modernizing educational facilities across Sherman ISD.

Crutchfield Elementary and Fairview Elementary both replace their original 1950s-era campuses with modern facilities designed to enhance learning and collaboration.

Crutchfield Elementary now accommodates up to 712 students and features an outdoor rooftop learning space dedicated to science education.

Fairview Elementary offers a spacious central courtyard that serves as a collaborative learning area and includes a design lab for hands-on, project-based exploration.

Paker Elementary, the district’s newest campus, honors longtime Sherman ISD educators Paula and David Parker. Located in northwest Sherman, the school will help meet the needs of the community’s rapidly growing population.

All three campuses include collaborative grade-level learning pods and gyms built to FEMA storm shelter standards, ensuring both safety and flexibility for students and staff.

RWB Consulting Engineers is proud to have partnered with VLK Architects and Sherman ISD in designing these forward-thinking educational spaces that will serve generations of learners for decades to come.
