Leander ISD Bond 2021: What’s on the ballot?

On Election Day, November 2, residents in Travis and Williamson Counties will be voting on the Leander ISD Bond. The $772.2 million bond covers projects for new school construction and updates to technology and school resources for the next three years. 

Our friends at Community Impact Newspaper report, “the district is expecting to add 12,000 students in the next 10 years based on growth projections. This amounts to nine more schools needed in 10 years.”

According to the school district, approval of the bond by voters will not increase the tax rate. Leander ISD has paid off enough debt to afford the bond. Additionally, the district expects revenue from the recent increase in taxable properties to help fund projects. 

This is the largest ever proposed by the district. The Leander ISD bond funds are distributed in three propositions for voter consideration. 

What’s included in the 2021 Leander ISD bond?

Proposition A

Proposition A of the Leander ISD bond includes $727.2 million in funding for new construction and renovation, plus equipment replacement projects. 

Proposition B

Proposition B would fund $33.3 million in technology upgrades and replacements for student and staff laptops. 

Proposition C

Proposition C lists $11.7 million for lighting and sounds upgrades and renovations for the high school and district performing arts centers. 

Leander ISD Bond Project Proposals
