Lamar CISD plans $11.1M classroom addition at Fulshear junior high

Lamar Consolidated Independent School District has registered an $11.1 million project to add 14 classrooms, expand the cafeteria and build new mechanical, electrical, plumbing and technology rooms at Dean Leaman Junior High School in Fulshear, according to a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filing.

Why it matters

The district is adding 20,910 square feet of classroom and support space to an existing Fulshear campus rather than waiting on a new school. For builders and contractors tracking Lamar CISD, this is a registered, publicly funded scope of work with a filed start date and a design firm already assigned.

The numbers

The TABS registration, filed Oct. 20, 2026, lists an estimated cost of $11.1 million for the Dean Leaman Junior High School Classroom Additions project at 9320 Charger Way in Fulshear. The scope covers 14 new classrooms, a cafeteria expansion and the MEPT rooms needed to support them, with PBK Architects as the design firm. The filing marks the work as publicly funded and classifies it as additions to an existing building, with the district itself, not a private developer, listed as owner. Construction is estimated to run from Feb. 17, 2027, to June 15, 2028, a roughly 16-month build.

What’s next

Lamar CISD’s registered timeline puts the construction start at Feb. 17, 2027, which leaves room for a contractor procurement in the months ahead. The district’s mailing address on file is 3911 Avenue I in Rosenberg, with Scot Hartfiel listed as the owner contact for the project.
