Funded by Clear Creek ISD’s bond referendum approved by voters in 2017, this new facility was
designed to promote creative spaces for each grade level.
The classrooms are organized around collaborative instructional areas offering maximum flexibility in both layout and technology to provide multiple learning opportunities. Areas for fine arts, science, technology, athletics, as well as a library, administrative offices, and other support areas are included in the design.
Clear Creek ISD Superintendent Dr. Greg Smith thanked VLK Architects for their creativity during the
design process and their attention to how the school environment impacts teaching and learning.
Smith also said he was excited to break ground on the new school. “I am confident Campbell Elementary will
provide a variety of educational experiences for our students as well as encourage them as they chart new
pathways for learning.”
