Voters Decline HISD’s $4.4 Billion Bond Proposal, Texas’ Largest School Bond

November 6, 2024324 views0

Houston voters declined Houston ISD’s $4.4 billion bond proposal, the largest school bond in Texas history, in Tuesday’s election. With approximately 58% of votes against the bond, both propositions on the ballot failed, according to final but unofficial returns from the Harris County Clerk’s Office.

The bond proposal was divided into two parts: Proposition A, which sought $3.96 billion for school renovations, safety upgrades, and infrastructure improvements, and Proposition B, requesting $440 million for technology upgrades. This was HISD’s first bond proposal in over a decade and the first since Superintendent Mike Miles assumed leadership in June 2023.

The bond’s failure delays planned upgrades across HISD’s 273 campuses, which included renovations to outdated facilities, the replacement of portable buildings, and expanded pre-K seats.
