Andrews ISD seeks $50 million bond for buses and campus upgrades

Andrews ISD plans a May 14 bond election to raise about 50 million for replacing buses dating to 1983, upgrading technology carts, wireless, and staff development. Projects include roof repairs at Clearfork Elementary and Andrews Middle School, air conditioning at Andrews High, cameras, ground level concession stand at Mustang Bowl, and track and tennis court improvements. The bond extends 2017 payments to 2027, with annual costs around 4.375 million, and no expected tax rate increase. Oil values affect tax impact due to mineral rights dominance in the county.
