Just weeks after League City sold a parcel of land to the Texas Department of Transportation for the Grand Parkway project, city officials have approved the sale of another parcel of land for $3.7 million.

The details: League City City Council voted unanimously to sell 15.8 acres of land currently owned by the League City Patrons of the Park Foundation to TxDOT at its Feb. 12 meeting.

The backstory: Conceptualized in the early 1960s, the Grand Parkway is a proposed 180-mile circumferential highway that travels around the Greater Houston metro, according to previous reporting by Community Impact.

The expansion project will extend the highway 14 miles from FM 646 in League City to south of FM 2403 in Alvin, TxDOT documents show.

Clear Creek ISD high school students have until Feb. 18 to enroll in new dual credit opportunities for the 2026-27 school year made available through partnerships with San Jacinto College and College of the Mainland, according to a Feb. 11 news release from the district.

“This exciting expansion reflects our continued commitment to prepare students for life beyond graduation,” Superintendent Karen Engle said in the release.

The details: The dual credit opportunities provide high school students with additional pathways to earn college credit and industry-based certifications while completing high school.

To enroll, students must meet the district’s dual credit requirements and complete the community college enrollment process, including any placement or testing requirements, according to the release.

The courses will take place at the partnering college campuses. Once enrolled, students are responsible for providing transportation.
