Bond 2024 supports long-range facility planning and the District's 10-Year Strategic Growth Plan.
The Argyle ISD Board of Trustees unanimously approved calling a bond election for May 4, 2024. Trustees approved the Bond & Growth Planning Committee’s recommendation of a long-range bond proposal which will be presented to voters in three propositions.
The bond election, if approved, will maintain the current tax rate. During this planning process, the BGPC focused on a long-range, 10-year bond program aligned to the district's 10-year strategic growth plan as compared to previous bonds that focused on short-term projects.
The bond package addresses instructional space needs for enrollment growth at the elementary, middle school and high school levels, district technology and a baseball/softball complex at Argyle High School to align with the district’s future shift to two 9-12 high schools.
