After four months of research, a recommendation of a bond totaling $132 million was proposed to the Dripping Springs ISD board of trustees to consider for a possible May bond election.
The DSISD bond steering committee presented its recommendation during a special meeting Jan. 29. The bond money will go toward updating schools and accommodating growth in the district.
The district is growing by 7.24 percent each year, according to officials. The current capacity of facilities is 7,350 students, and enrollment is expected to exceed that capacity by 2020. If the growth rate stays consistent, DSISD could reach 12,000 students by 2025, according to district estimates.
