Kirksey is excited to announce that the Aquatic Facility has won 's 2025 Best of Design 'Education - Kindergarten, Primary, and High School' award!
RRISD's Aquatic Facility was designed for maximum efficiency and flexibility, supporting simultaneous training for three high school swim teams and hosting UIL-sanctioned meets. In addition to competitive swimming, the facility accommodates diving, water polo, lifeguard training, youth swim lessons, wellness programs, and recreational use. The innovative, passively ventilated design accommodates air movement, daylighting, and radiant heating, and harnesses the energy and heating benefits of a CHP (Combined Heat & Power) generator, reducing energy use and cutting annual costs to roughly half those of similar facilities.
Congratulations to Round Rock ISD for its vision and commitment to the district's students and swimmers, and to the entire project team for bringing this high-performance facility to life!
