New elementary school planned for Dallas Independent School District students will offer 500 young people STEAM options.
Dallas Independent School District currently has three other STEAM Dallas magnets.
STEAM schools offer a focus on science, technology, math and the arts for students interested in these areas.
The Urban Park Steam Academy will include pre-K through fifth-grade students. It is budgeted to cost $34M.
The old school will be demolished once the new campus is complete and students have moved into the new facility.
