White Oak School Officials Consider Bond Issue

WHITE OAK — White Oak ISD trustees are moving forward to have a bond election in May. KETK reports the proposed bond would have a maximum price tag of $25 million and would be the first bond election for the district since 1999. Although in the beginning stages, the trustees are looking to get a new athletic fieldhouse and tennis courts. But the most important part, they say, is upgrading the high school, which is considered out of date. Officials could seek to renovate the current building, which was built in the 70s, or build something brand new. It would likely be February before the bond election is called.
