2015 Bond

As of August 2018, 90% of the 2015 Bond funds have been expended. As such, the Bond Oversight Committee (BOC) recommended how any remaining unallocated funds should be designated. The Board of Trustees then voted to repurpose the BOC into a Bond Advisory Committee to help form a potential 2019 Bond.

Overview

Voters approved a $52.5 million Eanes ISD bond package on May 9, 2015 that addresses capital improvements, replaces buses, improves technology and returns land to campuses by moving district functions into a District Operations Center. According to the Travis County Elections Office, voters approved the lone proposition at 65 percent.

“We are thankful to our community for showing their support to our students and staff, and for continuing our commitment to excellence,” said Dr. Tom Leonard, Superintendent of Schools. “The passage of this bond will help ensure the best for our students, as well as decrease strain on our budget.”
