As a fast-growth district, Leander ISD has been in a continual state of building for more than 20 years. The funding source differs from project to project. Most recently, in May 2023, LISD passed all three propositions of a bond election. Before that, a technology bond proposition passed in November 2021, and a general bond proposition passed in November 2017. Separately, some projects are funded through bond savings or through funds from the general fund.
The Board of Trustees receives monthly status updates of previous bond authorizations with funds remaining. The reports show original and current budgets. As projects are finalized, remaining funds are reallocated to project savings, which is a fund, subject to the Bond Oversight Committee’s recommendation for future use.
With the community’s support of the 2023 Bond, Leander ISD broke ground on the site of the future new warehouse facility for the Science Materials Center on Friday, Dec. 6. in a joint ceremony with the district’s new 18+ Transition Services building.
Leander ISD hosted a groundbreaking ceremony for the district's new Special Education 18+ Transition Services building, made possible by the 2023 Bond.
