Bond breakdown
The $402.3 million DSISD May 2025 Bond package is broken into two propositions to fund infrastructure, maintenance and facility upgrades across the district:
- Proposition A: $399.7 million including construction of High School No. 2, seat belts for buses, capital improvements at district campuses, and more
- Proposition B: $2.6 million for technology device upgrades and more
The bond comes as the district is facing overcapacity issues at Dripping Springs High School, DSISD’s only high school. The school is currently over its 2,500 capacity by 64 students, according to the district.
The high school is projected to reach more than 3,000 students by the 2027-28 school year— a year before the new high school would ideally open, Superintendent Holly Morris-Kuentz said.
The bond would also fund upgrades to aging infrastructure at DSISD facilities, as previously reported by Community Impact.
