GEORGETOWN — Georgetown ISD and City of Georgetown officials broke ground May 12 on the new McCoy Elementary Campus, which will be located on Bellaire Drive off of Shell Road in Northwest Georgetown.

Designed by SHW Group, the project is estimated to cost $17.66 million, including construction costs, fees and a construction contingency. The new building will be two stories, which will make it the first GISD elementary school built with two stories, said GISD school board president Brad Smith. Williams Elementary School, which was built as a high school, is a two-story building.

Funding for the project comes from the $137.3 million bond package approved by voters in Nov. 2010.
