The Judson Independent School District in Bexar County is considering a bond package of $198 million to build a new high school and two new elementary schools.
Proceeds would also finance land acquisitions for new schools and improvements at 13 elementary schools, five middle schools and two high schools. Other projects will include a new transportation center.
Trustees will decide Aug. 19 whether to put the proposal on the Nov. 2 ballot.
The district will conduct a telephone survey of voters before the meeting to determine community support for the bonds.
Voters approved a $59.6 million debt proposal in 2006 after having earlier rejecting bond ballot requests in 1999 and 2000.
The school district’s $420 million of outstanding bonded debt carries unenhanced ratings of Aa2 from Moody’s Investors Service and AA-minus from Fitch Ratings.
Judson ISD’s debt is enhanced to triple-A with coverage from the Texas Permanent School Fund.
