A Midland ISD trustee has expressed concerns about the readiness of two elementary campuses for the upcoming school year. The trustee, Matt Friez, has concerns about Sam Houston Elementary and South Elementary, which have large student enrollments. According to Friez, contractors appear to be behind schedule, but he remains hopeful that the work will be completed on time.

He emphasized the importance of providing safe and functional schools for students, teachers, and staff. Further details about the status of the campuses are expected to be released before the first day of school, and more information can be found through local news sources.
