Notes from the Superintendent

Click to view Video

The final piece of “Birdville’s Proposition Bundle” is Proposition C.  Proposition C would construct an Indoor Multipurpose Activity Center at Birdville, Haltom and Richland high schools. These facilities will be designed for use by both the fine arts and athletics programs. Features will include: 

  • A full football field, including end zones. This will allow the marching bands an indoor location to practice. 
  • Large fans and garage doors to help control heat during the summer months and heaters to help during the winter. 
  • Retractable netting from the roof to divide the space for multiple activities at the same time. 
  • Opportunities for band, drill teams, color guard, football, baseball, softball, soccer, and other non-fine arts/athletics uses. 

Proposition C 

Indoor Multipurpose Activity Centers at all three high schools 

Total: $59,000,000 

Once again, BISD is using the term “Birdville’s Proposition Bundle.” When discussing the three propositions, it is important to remind voters that they are being asked to consider the proposal as a bundle, even though they are listed as three separate items. 

Next week, we will look at School Finance and the Bond.
