The district’s Facilities Innovation & Readiness Stakeholder Team has held 10 public meetings since July to learn about the district’s strategic plan—LEAD 2021—and how it relates to all aspects of the district.

GCISD Chief Financial Officer Paula Barbaroux said FIRST has also been reviewing the evaluations of facilities and support systems.

“FIRST continues to evaluate potential projects and has already determined to recommend a bond package to the GCISD board of trustees,” she said in January. “A recommended package will likely be made in February.”

The bond would be on the May ballot.
