L.D. Hendricks Elementary School

Anna, Texas

Fall 2025

The new elementary school joins the district’s four other elementary schools and aligns with the growth and future of Anna ISD.The two-story design supports up to 800 students in grades Pre-K through 5. Prioritizing daylight, the building delivers large windows for every classroom. Ample skylights allow for light to filter into the media center, which acts as the hub of the school. Two levels of physical and visual connection promote multifunctional use and access, as well as dedicated spaces for art, music, special education, and science.

Outside, play areas are nestled into the building’s perimeter for safety and security while providing a high level of staff oversight. Exterior building elements extend to cover the play equipment during inclement weather. Entry-facing offices, a light-filled cafeteria, and a gymnasium also serve as a storm shelter. This state-of-the-art educational facility will open its doors in time for the 2025-2026 school year.
