Why did Peaster ISD call a Bond?

A facility committee comprised of citizens, staff, teachers and administrators met over the course of several months to tour the existing facilities, review demographic reports, analyze the capacity of each campus, review the conditions of the facilities and learn more about academic program needs. The data indicates the Elementary School is nearing capacity, the Middle School has reached its capacity and the committee determined that drainage issues and other items in the existing facilities should be addressed. The committee also agreed on the need to address increased traffic concerns. As a result, the committee unanimously recommended the Board call a bond election.
