Plano trustees approve Williams High School PE facility expansion
Plano ISD trustees on Tuesday night approved preliminary plans for a 56 by 110 foot practice gym and extended Student Center. C. Jack Corgan estimates 298000 for construction plus about 50000 for lockers and architectural fees. Remodeling aims to create separate boys and girls exercise rooms and a new Student Center north of the cafeteria. Construction likely cannot begin until after the school year ends and may not finish before term starts.

Williams High School additions begin next August as part of the October 1974 bond issue. The board split on two votes over tubas for the senior high band with Haggard breaking ties, selecting Brooks-Mays for tubas over Cline Music. Unanimous approvals covered carpet purchase for the new building and 11 contract change orders adding to the project, plus sewer work at Hughston Elementary, inter-fund transfers, and mid term staff hires.
