WACO, Texas (KWTX) - School may have just started across Central Texas, but many districts are already addressing funding.

On Monday, Midway ISD called for an $83.5 million bond election in November.

The bond package is broken down into $75.65 million for capital improvements and deferred maintenance, $6.5 million for classroom devices, and $1.35 million for lighting, security, and technology at extra and cocurricular spaces.

Midway Superintendent Dr. Chris Allen says the bond would not raise the tax rate.

“Ultimately, if we want to accomplish some level of equity across our campuses, if we want every kid in every building to be able to have similar experiences this bond program would be a step in the right direction,” Dr. Allen said.

We’re told every campus would be addressed.

Back in January, a facility study committee went over the enrollment, demographic, and facility study data to determine this proposal.

Election day is Tuesday, November 4th.
