The current Howard Elementary School was built in 1951. It is situated on nine acres.
Under the 2026 transformational bond, Howard and Lindbergh elementary schools would be combined into a new preschool through eighth grade building on the current Howard Elementary site. See an overview in the one-page Lindbergh-Howard flyer.

About PK-8 schools
Creating preschool-through eighth grade buildings will allow students and families to form strong bonds while remaining in their neighborhood school for much longer. Elementary and middle school students would be separated for classes, meals, recess, lineup, and dismissal, but all students could use special spaces like STEM labs, music rooms, and gymnasium-auditoriums. An ADA accessible pool would also be included and a turf athletic field.
Students and families would benefit from staying in the same neighborhood school for up to 10 years – from free GSRP preschool through eighth grade.
