On February 10, the Gainesville ISD Board of Trustees voted to seek voter approval for a $58,833,798 million bond issue. This process has been a community effort, enlisting the assistance of a Bond Facility Planning Committee composed of citizens, city leaders, board members, district employees, teachers, and parents. The committee dedicated several months to data collection, evaluations, and planning to compile this bond package. The recommendation was made to the school board at the January 21 Board of Trustees meeting.
The district’s financial advisor has determined that there will be a $0.1395 tax rate increase to finance this bond. Projects are funded based on new valuations and growth within the district. The district’s 2025 bond package addresses three key pillars: safety & security, renovating aging facilities, and enrollment growth.
