District moves forward with $852K in projects Georgetown ISD will complete several projects to improve multiple campuses after trustees approved the use of $852,500 in unspent 2021 bond funds. What you need to know As with previous approvals for the use of unspent bond funds, the projects are smaller capital improvements at several campuses in the district. However, the selection of the projects happened through a newly established process, according to district documents. The new process involves staff evaluating potential projects using a scoring matrix before bringing them to the district’s Bond Advisory Committee, which deliberated on the proposal and staff recommendations for these projects.

Georgetown ISD purchases 10 acres Georgetown ISD officials greenlit the pur- chase of 10.01 acres in the district’s northwest quadrant Feb. 3, potentially for a future high school site and other district facilities. The gist Documents show the purchase comes with a development agreement as the dis- trict completes a 110-acre parcel of property. The district has not yet shared the total purchase price of the 10.01 acres of property, or its exact location, as details are in the process of being finalized. How we got here This comes about six months after the dis- trict purchased just over 11 acres of property in the district’s northwest, also to be used for a future school site.

The proposal includes the following projects:

Village Elementary School and Carver Elementary School driveway canopy extensions: $300,000 Tippit Middle School and Wagner Middle School tennis court resurfacing: $250,000

Interior painting at Village Elementary School: $100,000

Georgetown High School wrestling room expansion: $77,500

Fiber and data connections at Tippit Middle School: $75,000

East View High School toilet partition repairs: $25,000

Hammerlun Center for Leadership and Learning security improvements to Building 2: $15,000

Fiber and data connections at Wagner Middle School: $10,000
