Frisco Independent School District (ISD) is advancing plans to address essential projects aimed at maintaining facilities and minimizing disruptions to instructional programs through 2026. This follows the rejection of the 2024 bond package by voters in November.
District officials have been evaluating options for months. During a recent capital projects workshop, trustees were presented with a plan to maintain infrastructure and fund high-priority capital projects included in the rejected bond.
The district plans to reprioritize existing funds from the 2018 bond for critical projects. This approach utilizes leftover bond money, ensuring responsible use of public funds already approved by voters.
Frisco ISD's revised capital plan incorporates cost-saving measures and revenue opportunities, enabling the district to maintain its facilities and most instructional programs over the next year.
At the workshop, trustees also reviewed results from a retrospective survey sent to the Frisco ISD community regarding the 2024 bond program and priorities for future bonds.
The board will conduct several public budget and strategic planning workshops in upcoming months. Information on board meetings and workshops is available on the district calendar.
