The GISD board of trustees approved the $8.4 million land purchase at a July 21 meeting. The property is located at the intersection of FM 1105 and CR 153 in the Walburg area, according to district documents obtained by Community Impact in November through a public records request.
Demographers have projected that the district will see additional growth in its eastern portion, prompting the district to purchase the property for future schools, said Melinda Brasher, executive director for communications and community engagement.
