Bond 2020 Updates

On November 3, 2020, registered voters in the Frenship District approved a $299.7 million bond to accommodate Frenship’s growth. More than 90% of the $299.7 million bond was dedicated to building additional schools and renovating existing facilities to accommodate the 2-5% student enrollment growth each year. This included the construction of three new schools in three years:

  • Alcove Trails Middle School, Frenship’s 4th middle school, opened in August 2023
  • Ridgewood Elementary School, Frenship’s ninth elementary, opened in August 2024
  • Frenship Memorial High School, Frenship’s second comprehensive high school, opened in August 2025.
 
ONGOING PROJECTS

Frenship Memorial High School

Frenship ISD has more than 12,000+ students across the district with nearly 3,300 high school students in 9-12 grade. The opening of Frenship Memorial High School in August of 2025 helps accommodate the current crowding and future growth while also providing additional opportunities for high school students at Frenship ISD.

Frenship Memorial High School has the same academic and extracurricular opportunities as Frenship High School. Shared facilities between Frenship Memorial High School and Frenship High School include Peoples Bank Stadium and the Agricultural facilities.

The first graduating class will be in May of 2028.

Principal: Chelsey Campbell

Doors Open: August 2025

Location: 7012 43rd Drive, Lubbock, TX 79407

Attendance Boundaries: After gathering community input during town hall meetings and based on demographic studies and growth projections, the school board approved the high school attendance boundaries that will follow a feeder pattern. Heritage Middle School and Terra Vista Middle School students will attend Frenship Memorial High School. Frenship Middle School and Alcove Trails Middle School students will attend Frenship High School.

Mascot:  Panthers

Repurposing Ninth Grade Center to Frenship Middle School

With the opening of Frenship Memorial High School, the Ninth Grade Center campus is no longer needed to house ninth grade students and was repurposed to serve as the new Frenship Middle School campus beginning the 2025-2026 school year. Previously, Frenship Middle School was housed in the first and original Frenship high school built in 1935.

 

As part of the 2020 Bond projects, additions were added to the Ninth Grade Center campus to make it a stand-alone middle school with facilities that are equitable to other Frenship middle schools. Those additions included a fine arts wing with band and choir halls and athletic facilities such as a practice field and game day field designated specifically for the middle school. 

 

Frenship Middle School Conversion

As we see student enrollment steadily climbing, the number of staff members is also increasing. With FMS now in its new home, the old FMS building, located at 500 Main Street in Wolfforth, will be converted to the Frenship Professional Learner Center for additional professional learning spaces and District offices.
