Wylie ISD is inviting the public to help name two new schools—a junior high and an intermediate campus—scheduled to open in fall 2026 on the east side of the district, near Kreymer Road and south of Brown Street.

The district’s board of trustees’ values community input in shaping this milestone and is encouraging submissions for school name suggestions through an official form, which will close on Jan. 10.

According to April Cunningham, executive director of communications for Wylie ISD, the district currently operates 20 schools and will expand to 23 once the new facilities open. School names can honor individuals, both living and deceased, heroic figures, or geographic locations, per board policy.
