Berry Elementary
1800 Joyce St., Arlington, TX 76010
Project Status
UPDATE: Construction of the new Berry Elementary kicked off in December 2021 with a groundbreaking ceremony. Read about and watch the ceremony. Berry's construction is on schedule and is just a couple of weeks away from starting to receive furniture. Current work includes finishes, flooring, painting, pouring sidewalks, landscaping and more.
The 2019 Bond is replacing the original Berry Elementary building, which opened in 1955. The old building was demolished in the fall of 2021, and the new building is under construction on the same site. The school is temporarily housed at the former Roark Elementary campus until the new Berry is completed. It is scheduled to open for the 2023-2024 school year.
Berry celebrated its history at the end of the final school year in its original building. Read more.
