PSJA ISD to Host Groundbreaking Ceremony for Renovations of PSJA Auditorium Dome

SAN JUAN – Pharr-San Juan-Alamo Independent School District (PSJA ISD) will be hosting a Groundbreaking Ceremony for its iconic PSJA ISD Auditorium on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, at 8:30 AM.

For decades, the PSJA Auditorium—one of two cherished “Oso Domes”—was where some of PSJA ISD’s greatest moments took center stage. Built in 1960, its curved walls rang with the magic of show-stopping performances and the thunderous applause of proud families and friends.

Now, after years of silence, construction is in full swing to transform this dome into a modern, state-of-the-art auditorium—featuring seating for nearly 1,200 guests, advanced lighting and sound, and amenities.

 PSJA ISD invites the community to join in as they officially commemorate the construction underway and look ahead to a grand reopening in Fall 2026!
