PAMPA, TX (February 6, 2026) – Pampa Independent School District announced today a

$100,000 donation from Intersect to support Career and Technical Education (CTE)

programming at the district’s new CTE Center currently under construction at Pampa High

School.

The CTE Center is being built through a voter-approved bond passed in 2023. Pampa ISD’s

CTE programs have been in place for several years, and the new facility is designed to expand

and strengthen those existing offerings. While bond funding supports construction of the facility,

Intersect’s donation will help fund instructional programming, classroom supplies, equipment,

and other educational needs not covered by the bond.

“Career and Technical Education has supported students and families in our community for

many years,” said Hugh Piatt, Superintendent of Pampa ISD. “Our community approved this

bond, and it’s exciting to see the project taking shape. It places a strong value on career and

technical education and the impact it will have on the future of Pampa and our region. Support

from Intersect helps us continue building on that vision for our students.” The new CTE Center

is expected to play a key role in supporting workforce development aligned with industries

moving into the region, including energy and technology-related fields.

“Strong communities grow from education and opportunity,” said Elizabeth Knowles, Head of

Community Engagement at Intersect. “We’re proud to support Pampa ISD’s CTE programs and

the teachers and students who are helping shape the future of Pampa’s workforce.”

Construction on the CTE Center and Fine Arts Center is currently underway. Projects included

in the 2023 bond are expected to be completed by August 2027.
