Corsicana
ISD voters are being asked to consider a bond proposal for the November 4th,
2014 ballot totaling $49,673,624. The
Board of Trustees unanimously called for the bond election following the
recommendation of the citizens committee. The proposal addresses safety and security at every campus, renovations
and upgrades to facilities, and building a middle school.
The
bond package includes:
· Securing campus entrances
including secure entry vestibules, keyless entry systems, and installing video
surveillance
·
Building
a 7-8 middle school – Reconfiguring
Collins for a 5th and 6th grade campus. This
will provide for additional space on elementary campuses and will allow for
most portable buildings to be removed.
· Renovations to all campuses
Under the
proposal, all campuses in the district will receive renovations. Drane will be repurposed to an educational
facility and is not included in this Bond proposal. Renovations for Drane will be paid for from
other funds such as historical grants monies and/or general fund. Drane plans are pending an engineering study
currently being conducted.
