The details
The bond election consists of the following potential projects:

- One new junior high school
- One replacement campus to replace Stevenson Primary and Disney Elementary
- Renovations and additions to Alvin and Manvel High Schools
- A safety and security package
- Land acquisition
By the 2033-34 school year, AISD will add nearly 7,000 more students to its current enrollment of roughly 30,000, according to Zonda Demographics.
“We know we're going to have an increase in student enrollment, so we’re meeting the needs of that enrollment and planning for it,” Nelson said in September.
District officials also said if the bond is passed, the tax rate would decrease by $0.02 per $100 valuation of a home, going from its current rate of $1.17 to $1.15 per $100 valuation.
“The new rate of $1.15 would be the ceiling for the life of this bond package, ... so the rate would stay at $1.15 or below,” AISD Chief Financial Officer Daniel Combs previously said.
