The district plans 3.03 percent growth for ten years, reaching 25,000 students by 2011 as 18,600 pupils attend this year. A March 4 hearing and a March 24 board vote shaped a plan to balance 14 campuses near capacity, with Travis Alamo and Carver seen as needing more room and Bowie possibly rebuilt. A bond referendum approach, aided by a four to five month facilities review, aims for May 2004, with citizen input later.
