Big Thought Invites You To Make Your Voice Heard

Election Day holds heightened importance for the Dallas ISD and the students it serves. The Board of Trustees voted on Aug. 21 to place a $1.6 billion bond program for the district. It will be in the voters’ hands Nov. 3.

If the bond program is approved by DISD registered voters it would fund new schools, facility improvements across the district, and support growing programs – all without raising taxes.

Here’s what the bond proposal includes:

Nine new schools as well as 286 new classrooms and expanded facilities
Educational adequacy, including new technology, science labs, gym/locker room enhancements
New educational programs – pre-kindergarten expansion, career/technical programs
Capital improvements such as new roofs, HVAC, windows, doors, plumbing, and more
Land acquisition, demolition and early priority projects
The last day to register to vote in the Nov. 3 elections is Oct. 5. Early voting begins Oct. 19 and runs through Oct. 30. For more information, go to:
