Our Work

The Uvalde CISD Moving Forward Foundation was created in the wake of the tragedy at Robb Elementary School through gifts from the H-E-B Grocery Company and the Butt family totaling $10 million. Huckabee Inc. donated their architectural services, Joeris Construction donated their pre-construction services, and Satterfield & Pontikes Construction Company discounted their services for the construction work.

Beginning in the fall of 2022, we began working with the Uvalde CISD Community Advisory Committee to develop the plans for the new elementary school. Those plans were approved by the Uvalde CISD Board of Trustees in April 2023. We held a groundbreaking ceremony in October 2023 and construction will begin in February 2024.
