Last fall, Mesquite ISD formed a Facility Planning Committee comprised of community members, business leaders, students, staff, and parents. The committee was tasked with evaluating and prioritizing the current and future needs of the District while also assessing our current and projected growth in the southern section of the district. In January, representatives from the Facility Planning Committee presented their findings and recommendations to the Board of Trustees. 

On February 10, the Mesquite ISD School Board voted unanimously to adopt an order calling a $600 million bond election. The bond proposal will appear on the ballot as two separate propositions for various projects, including safety and security improvements, safety and security, growth in the southern section of the district, and renovations and updates to aging facilities and equipment.
