Jayton-Girard ISD has been setting a strategy to cover $21 million in improvement projects for school facilities, if voters approve the four separate propositions set for this November’s ballot.
The Texas Spur had the opportunity this week to talk with district superintendent Scott Bicknell about the four projects, and the anticipated funding for bond repayments via annual interest accruing on the Permanent School Fund. We’ll have a full story in next week’s issue, in advance of the first planned community meeting on the topic, Sunday, Sept. 8.
“Please join us in our Community 2024 November Bond Election presentations for Jayton-Girard ISD,” reads the information on the district’s Facebook page. The Kent County Community Center building is located at 156 W. 4th St. in Jayton, facing the grass square in the middle of town.
