What is Angleton ISD proposing to the Bond Advisory Committee for consideration?
In the summer of 2018, the AISD Board of Trustees started a program to enhance the safety within the district. The board decided to address safety needs immediately, as opposed to waiting for funding from a bond issue. Through fund balance savings and appropriating budget monies, AISD has spent more than $3 million to enhance the safety features in the district. These include:
• Additional police officers that allowed for coverage on each campus
• New equipment for the police department •New and enhanced video surveillance and entry systems throughout the district
• New security vestibules at needed facilities
AISD and the AISD Board of Trustees are committed to addressing needs as immediately as possible.
