TISD Board Calls for $124.877M School Bond Election
The Board of Trustees of the Tyler Independent School District unanimously approved calling a School Bond Election Nov. 4, 2008, and authorizing related agreements.

The list of projects for this proposed School Bond Election total $124.877 million and includes the replacement of the following campuses:

  • Clarkston Elementary School
  • Griffin Elementary School
  • Jones Elementary School
  • Orr Elementary School
  • St. Louis School
  • Andy Woods Elementary School

  • The Board of Trustees also approved Aug. 26, 2008 as the meeting date for the purpose of adopting the budget and the proposed tax rate. The Board of Trustees also approved that the “proposed tax rate” of $1.21 be used in the publication “Notice of Public Meeting to Discuss Budget and Proposed Tax Rate.” This proposed tax rate will equate to a half-cent decrease from the current tax rate of $1.215. This decrease will result in a $375,000 reduction of the Maintenance and Operations (M&O) budget.

    TylerPaper.com and the Tyler Morning Telegraph are working on additional details of these school-related stories.
