Temple ISDBond Proposal Presented by Max Cleaver Executive Director of Operations, TISD Spring 2007 “Our Students are worth our efforts”
District Commitment • Staff is committed to the development of a long-range plan regardless of the outcome of the May 12, 2007 Bond Election. • Long-Range Plan will require community participation and acceptance. TISD will provide the forum.
District Financing • School districts periodically complement the Maintenance & Operations Fund (M&O) with the issuance of bonds to finance major capital projects that cannot be funded through the budget process. • Last successful bond was ten years ago
Education is Our Core Business • District Vision • Career Academies • Medical and Bio-Science Focus • Advancement of Fine Arts • Educational Program Challenges • TEA Mandates for Technology: “On-Line in 09” • TEA Mandates for Science: “4X4 at THS” • Loss of Ag-Farm
Phase One: Who is Affected, and Why Now? • Technology • All Students and Staff • TEA Mandates • Science • All Secondary Students • TEA Mandates • Fine Arts: • 44% of THS Students, Many Other TISD Students • Community Use of Auditorium • Not TAKS tested, but critical for student development • Ag-Science: • 10% of THS Students, Ag-Clubs, Elementary Field Trips • Loss of Animal Farm due to change in land-use
Long-Range Planning - Proposed • Phase One: One Proposition May 12, 2007 • Technology • Science • Fine Arts • Ag Science • Phase Two: Estimated 2010 • School Improvement • Additions to three newest elementary schools • Civil / Site Improvements • Parking and Bus Loops • Phase Three Estimated 2013 • Continued School Improvement • Support Facilities
Phase One Technology • “21st Century Classroom” • Wireless Overlay • PC Tablet • Ceiling Mounted Projector • Document Camera • Lockable Cart
Phase One Technology • Front-load the bond amortization to pay for Technology first • Teacher desktop computers can be used as additional computer hardware for education • Planning Factor: 600 Classrooms • Estimated Cost Per Classroom: $5,300 • Estimated Cost: $3,169,800
Phase One Science • Create Additional “Inquiry-Based” Labs • Up to 35,440 sq. ft. at $219 per sq. ft. • Combination New Construction and Renovation • Estimated Budget: $7,761,360: • Temple HS: Estimated Budget $2,505,360 • Lamar MS: Estimated Budget $1,752,000 • Travis MS: Estimated Budget $1,752,000 • Bonham MS: Estimated Budget $1,752,000

Phase One – Impact on Taxes • At a projected interest rate of 5%, the proposed $19.9 million bond will cost 8 cents per $100 valuation • This equates to $80 per year ($6.67 per month) for a home valued at $100,000 • Interest rates are subject to change
Long-Range Planning:Phase Two and Beyond • Campus Capacity Analysis • Core Capacity • Design Versus Actual • Population Growth Analysis • When and Where • Attendance Zone Analysis • Neighborhood Demographics
Long-Range Planning:Phase Two and Beyond • Support Facility Analysis • FHARC • CSSC • Wheatley • Dickson • Emerson • Vandiver • Quonset Huts • Storage Barn • Grounds Shop
Long-Range Planning Other Considerations • HVAC • Performance Contract: • Pay for upgrades with savings generated from utility savings • No “out of pocket” expense • Guaranteed Savings • Not all projects have economically feasible payback • May be addressed in future bond elections
