2014 BOND ELECTION

 

It's FUN to be Facilitated!

 

Bond Committee

As soon as the 2013 bond proposal was soundly defeated in November 2013, 8,841 to 7,398, and only one precinct surrounding the ESC in west Fort Bend County had a majority in favor of the bond, the school district began to plan for the next bond. (What that vote says is that the people who didn't have a vested interest in the outcome of the election voted AGAINST it!) But the school district  never gives up.  And while they were biding  their time waiting for the right moment to spring another bond on the public, they managed to come up with $5,000,000 to build the "STEM" center with money from the Maintenance and Operations portion of the tax rate.  Such a move flies in the face of a majority of voters who voted NO on the bond proposal that included the STEM center!  This expenditure also takes money away from the part of the tax base that pays for salaries for teachers and other employees! This action is just another example of how we have a superintendent who does what he wants to do because there is a Board of Trustees in place that has absolutely no control over what he does!

 

In addition, the message should have been loud and clear that the parents of students in our district wanted the buses back. They are fed up with their kids being placed in danger by not having buses available as they have always been until Alton Frailey got here! (I'm hearing that the bus issue is now on the agenda for the March meeting.  That would be because the superintendent believes that the bus issue is what defeated "his" bond last November.  Let's show him that it was much more than that! It's about a school district and a school board that doesn't really care about the academic education of any of our children!) [They have put off addressing the bus issue until closer to the bond election date.  Makes sense if one is in their shoes!


The superintendent and the school board obviously don't listen to the voters.  Citizens can't do much about the superintendent, but they can sure make certain that they vote out the incumbents as they come up for a vote if they haven't opposed these senseless bonds and other issues that are put in front of them by the current superintendent.
