Keller, TX – A community-wide Town Hall Meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. on August 11 at the Keller ISD Education Center, at which Superintendent Dr. Randy Reid will detail the District’s final bond proposal to be presented to the Board of Trustees for consideration in an upcoming November election. Earlier this year, community forums were held at each of Keller ISD’s four high schools, at which Dr. Reid presented a conceptual idea related to the November bond package. The presentation was also made available through an online video. The District welcomed questions, concerns and suggestions from the community and took these into consideration while crafting the final proposal. “We received a great deal of constructive feedback from parents, students and community members throughout the course of the potential bond presentations,” said Dr. Reid. “Keller ISD is dedicated to proposing a bond that meets the needs of our stakeholders, most importantly our students, and the changes we have made are a reflection of our community’s wishes.” The Keller ISD Citizens Bond Advisory Committee (CBAC), a group composed of parents and community and business members, began meeting with the District administration in February 2014 to help develop a bond package that would bring Keller ISD a dedicated Career Technology Education campus, create purer feeder patterns for existing schools, allow the District to keep up with continuing growth and improve existing infrastructure. In addition to the Town Hall on August 11, the Keller ISD Board of Trustees will hold a Joint Meeting with the Keller City Council at 6 p.m. on August 6, at the Keller ISD Education Center, 350 Keller Parkway, Keller, Texas 76248. The Joint Meeting will include a general discussion agenda item during which the City Council and Board of Trustees will share common interest topics including the bond proposal.
