A 20 member committee exploring whether College Station ISD will have a bond election this November has met twice and is scheduled to get together twice in the next two weeks.

During the April 20 CSISD school board meeting, chief financial officer Amy Drozd says the committee is learning about projects that are ranked in one of four categories. They are an (1) immediate instructional or maintenance/facility need or within three years, (2) an instructional or maintenance/facility need in the next three to five years, (3) a potential instructional or maintenance/facility need that is more than five years away, and (4) something that would be nice to have or the district has had some discussion on for the future.

Board president Mike Nugent, who is among three board members on the committee, said the only surprise is that there are so many needs in CSISD.

No new buildings are being considered by the committee, which includes three board members, two principals, four teachers, and 11 parents.

The committee met March 30 and April 13 and is meeting April 27 and May 4.

The next update to the school board is scheduled for May 18. If there is a need for a fifth committee meeting, it is scheduled for May 25. The final school board presentation would be June 15, and board action to call a bond election would be considered July 20.
