WOODVILLE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT
News Release
January 14, 2022
For immediate release: Proposition includes safety, career and technology and new facilities
The Woodville ISD Board of Trustees voted unanimously to accept the recommendation of the District's Facility Task Force Committee to call for a $47,850,000 bond package for the May 2022 Election.
The bond package was developed and recommended by the District's Facility Task Force Committee representing a cross-section of the community, including local citizens, civic and business leaders, parents and school staff. The Task Force studied a district-wide facility assessment, demographics and enrollment projections, district financial information and toured all campuses. Over a period of nine months, members met to assess and prioritize key areas of focus, which included potential new facilities as well as maintenance, renovations to existing campuses before making their recommendation.
If approved by the voters, the bond will be used to finance the construction of a new Pre-Kindergarten thru Fifth Grade school building to replace the existing buildings housing the Woodville Elementary and Intermediate schools. The bond will also finance renovations to the current Vocational-Ag building at the high school including an addition to expand space for other Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs. Any bond proceeds used for capital items will be amortized over a short period of time and for a period less than the useful life of these capital items as required by law.
If anyone has any questions or wants more information regarding the bond program, they may visit the school website at www.woodvilleeagles.org; call the School Administration Office at 409-283-3752; or email woodvilleisdbond2022@woodvillceagles.org.
