Jim Barnes slated for additions, renovations Renderings of Barnes’ future released Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) – This upcoming school year means continued planning and spring construction for a local Seguin ISD campus. Voter approved additions and renovation plans at Jim Barnes Middle School are officially underway. That’s according to Architect Robyn Popa of Pfluger Architects. “When Barnes was originally built, it was only designed to accommodate two grade levels so now with having three grade levels in that campus, it has become very congested and very crowded. So expanded core facilities as well as additional classroom space is very much needed over at this campus,” said Popa. Popa says the renovation portion of the project will provide some much-needed elbow room to existing space. “We are doing just a little over 27,000 square foot of renovation and a lot of that is focused on the library, the existing cafeteria, the portion of the fine arts wing that is there currently as well as a small sliver of space along the classroom wing there and then we are doing just under 21,000 square feet of new additions that will expand the number of classrooms at this campus. So, if we look at each individual area isolated, for the academic expansion what we are looking at is on the new addition, we will be providing 12 new classrooms as well as restrooms in the new addition component and then the renovation area, we will be taking over some of the classrooms that are there and repurposing those and reconfiguring walls there to make two art rooms,...
