TSA to honor former student for
helping improve Dallas schools

A Texas A&M former student and principal with Brown Reynolds Watford Architects will be honored by the Texas Society of Architects for his efforts to improve the public schools in Dallas.

Craig Reynolds, FAIA, who earned a Master of Architecture degree from Texas A&M in 1979 and a Bachelor of Environmental Design degree in 1977, will receive the TSA’s Award for Community Service in Honor of James D. Pfluger, FAIA, during the 70th annual TSA convention in Houston Oct. 22-24.

“Reynolds’ leadership transformed Dallas’ public schools from an aging example of neglect to a national example of learning environments for public school children,” said a release from the TSA. “His masterful and civic-minded work was essential in winning landslide support for a large bond program in 2002 that will provide benefits in the Dallas community for decades to come. His leadership demonstrated that architects do more than simply design the arrangement of bricks and mortar; they enable their community to see a brighter future and empower them to ensure it for generations to come.”

Brown Reynolds Watford Architects is a Dallas-based firm with offices in College Station and Houston. Reynolds directs the firm’s educational and recreational project initiatives while leading its growth strategies.
