Pearland ISD ekes out a bond victory
Chris Elam points to this Chron story that says voters approved Pearland ISD's bond proposal -- but just barely:
Voters in the Pearland Independent School District on Saturday narrowly passed a $58 million bond package that will pay for building two elementary schools and a middle school.
The vote was 1,111-1,008.
“Call it squeaky,” said PISD Superintendent Bonny Cain. “It means that we will be able to meet the needs that have come our way.”
School districts would be wise to focus on the basics and not the fluff, if they want these bond referendums to pass.
