Fields, Tracks Reopening Early At Robert E. Lee, John Tyler
Tyler ISD, effective Wednesday, has reopened the fields and tracks at John Tyler and Robert E. Lee high schools ahead of schedule.
The district had said the fields would be closed until Sept. 1.
The district closed the fields in July to begin maintenance, which included the installation of a new drainage system and reinstallation of Bermuda turf.
TISD trustees had OK'd the use of more than $111,000 in emergency funds for repairing "hazardous" drainage situations at the varsity fields.
The fields were originally designed for football, officials said. But soccer now also uses those fields.
Drains outside the sidelines for football were actually inside the sidelines for soccer, creating safety issues, officials said.
