The Bond proposal would have provided critical repairs and updates to campuses across the district, accounted for the construction of a new kindergarten-fifth grade campus in response to growth, renovated and unified the Terrell High School campus, and upgraded and expanded libraries and playgrounds at multiple campuses.
“Our students and teachers desperately needed this bond to renovate existing campuses and add a new elementary school to account for anticipated growth,” said Superintendent Dr. Georgeanne Warnock. “However, despite the outcome of the election, we remain undeterred in our commitment to serve every student who walks through the doors of our schools. We will continue to use all means available to enhance educational equity across the district, expand early childhood education, improve literacy, cultivate engaging and safe learning environments, and increase student achievement.”
“I would like to thank our community members, staff, and Board of Trustees who worked tirelessly on the bond campaign,” added Warnock. “The issues the bond would have addressed are not going anywhere. It is imperative as a district that we re-engage our community, seek input, and modify the bond proposals accordingly.”
