Carroll ISD board of trustees voted Monday night to call for a May 6 bond election. The $208 million bond package, if approved, would be the largest bond in the district's history.

The bond proposition includes classroom additions to all elementary schools, which are near or at capacity, as well as new roofs, new flooring and upgrades, and renovations to the aquatics center.

Some other items in the bond package include:

New performing arts facility


This project involves the construction of a new 700-seat performing arts auditorium for band and choir performances. The building could be constructed on the corner of Peytonville and FM 1709/Southlake Boulevard on the Carroll Senior High School campus.

Dragon Stadium maintenance & renovations


Dragon Stadium opened more than 15 years ago and has only undergone one renovation during that time period. In 2009, voters approved an additional 1,600 seats on the home side as well as field turf replacement. In this bond package, renovations include press box upgrades, turf replacement, restroom renovations and more.

Student devices


The project list includes about $8 million for student devices, including a refresh of existing devices and about $3 million in additional devices, along with a technology position for every campus dedicated to serving the devices.

The last time Carroll ISD called a bond election was in 2009. Voters also approved bond elections in 1994, 1996, 1999 and 2006.

Early voting will take place from April 24-May 2.
