What happened: Midland ISD broke ground on the new Midland and Legacy High Schools. Both campuses are scheduled to open in August 2028. With the passing of the district’s 2023 bond project, these campuses are set to feature cutting-edge classrooms, enhanced safety measures, and expanded opportunities in fine arts, athletics, and career pathways. The new facilities will also support districtwide grade reconfiguration, and open up two new middle schools in the current Midland Freshman and Legacy High buildings.
