Riesel ISD A TEA RECOGNIZED DISTRICT Steve Clugston, Superintendent- 254.896.6411 February 25, 2010
RIESEL BOARD CALLS BOND FOR NEW SCHOOL On February 15, The Riesel ISD Board of Trustees voted to call a bond election for $25 million to build a new JH/HS building where the current baseball field and weight room reside. Voters will decide on May 8th whether Riesel ISD can build the proposed new school. A citizen committee has been reviewing the RISD school facilities for the past year. They presented their recommendations to the board last summer, calling for the new facilities and upgrades. The board has been studying different ideas for the past year and is now ready to commit to the bond. In addition to the new JH/HS building the bond proposal also includes replacement of the baseball field and weight room along with the construction of a district softball field, a new VoAg facility, a larger PE gym at the elementary school, covered student drop off area at the elementary, refurbishing of the track, a new administration building and 2 new buses. Other projects may be addressed with remaining bond funds if the primary needs have been completed within budget.
