A community pleads for a bond to build a new Bronte District high school arguing current facilities risk safety, zoning, and future taxes. Advocates warn TEA pressure may force immediate action or consolidation, urging residents to support the bond for better student classrooms and local life.
The Bronte School Board and its advisors outline a 325000 bond proposal to fund new facilities. They propose an 18 year repayment within current tax levels, with first payments overlapping in 1966 when high school bonds begin. About 8000 in extra taxes would be required for the first year to cover the new issue.
Bronte School officials push a bond to replace the 1922 gym with a larger facility including an underground classroom unit. They argue current space inadequacies hinder physical education and community needs while the new plan promises tornado shelter, air conditioning, and capacity for up to 35 percent more students.
The Bronte community weighs a proposed school bond amid claims it would burden the elderly. Local seniors argue against that view, praising the town’s schools, streets, parks, and churches while urging voters to support youth education and better preparation for a competitive world.
