Bond

Keller ISD's Board of Trustees has called an $828 million bond election for November 3, 2026, based on recommendations from the district's Citizens Bond Advisory Committee (CBAC).

This is Keller ISD's first bond proposal since 2019. The bond package is organized into multiple propositions, labeled A through E, and each one covers a different set of projects. All five propositions can be funded within the Keller ISD existing tax rate.

The CBAC was made up of more than 65 individuals, including parents, grandparents, students, business leaders, civic leaders, volunteers, community members, staff, and retirees from across the district. From January to June, the committee evaluated current facilities, explored district finances, toured district facilities, and developed projects based on the information studied before making its recommendation to the Board of Trustees in July.

Facility Age & Building Systems

Keller ISD currently spends millions of dollars from its operating budget to address aging building systems at campuses across the district. Some classrooms have air conditioning systems that have allowed temperatures to reach 90 degrees when they fail, and some campuses have experienced sewage backups linked to outdated plumbing. Keller Middle School has more than 20 entry and exit points as a result of multiple additions built over the years.

Safety, Security & Technology

District-wide, current safety and security technology, including surveillance cameras, servers, alert systems, and access control, is approaching the end of its lifecycle. Student and staff instructional devices are also due for replacement. Keller ISD spends $6 million from its operating budget each year to refresh these devices alone, and additional operating dollars go toward network infrastructure, connectivity, and cybersecurity needs.
