Survey leans in favor of potential GCISD bond Grapevine-Colleyville ISD board members got a preview Nov. 13 of how community members might vote on a potential bond program in 2024. In a nutshell The research firm Baselice and Associates conducted a survey of 401 GCISD community members from Nov. 1-3. President and CEO Mike Baselice said the survey questions focused on three potential bond propositions. In the survey, Proposition A would issue $147 million in bonds to build new facilities or renovate existing ones. Proposition B would issue $12 million for instruc- tional technology purchases. Proposition C would issue $6 million for swim center renovations. Baselice noted a significant difference when respondents were more informed about each bal- lot item, with respondents voting more favorably toward the propositions.

Board OKs new hospital sponsorship The Carroll ISD board of trustees approved Nov. 13 a sponsorship agreement with Methodist Southlake Medical Center, which will generate $190,750 over the two-year contract, according to CISD Marketing Coordinator Beth Robb. The specifics Methodist Southlake Medical Center will have three designated spots for signage: • The facade of the main entrance • Inside on the facade of the press box • The facade on visitor-side seating The venue will still say Dragon Stadium on it, but Robb noted the wording could say Dragon Stadium sponsored by Methodist Southlake Center.
