BULLARD — Bullard needs a new school building. But KETK reports that before going through the usual bond election and other ways to pay for it, townspeople are doing it the old-fashioned way — by just pitching in. <\/p>\n
For years, an old run-down house has been used as an alternative school. But it was recently discovered to have significant termite damage — so school officials turned to the community for help. Now Campbell Custom Homes has agreed to build an 1800-square-foot metal building encased in brick for a very low cost. The city jumped on board too and said it would waive the building fees for the project. <\/p>\n
BISD Superintendent Keith Bryant says the help will save the district at least $100,000. He remarks that the effort “says a lot for our citizens.” According to Bryant, the district plans to vacate the old building January 13 and will start demolition immediately thereafter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
