If they have money left over, dressing rooms are one of the things on the list.

How often does new construction come in under budget..? I hope we are able to get everything we want and more I really do. But honestly I’m not holding my breath on us able to build one,

And some of the main yes people are from Port Neches!  LOL!!

You do realize that some of Port Neches is inside Nederland ISD right?   I am referring to people who do not own property inside the ISD or in a couple of cases in Jefferson County at all.

The 2012 bond came in under budget by quite a bit.

Mine was a joke about the yes people from PNG who do not live in Nederland.

But at least their band and drill team will be able to perform at halftime when it's wet (vidor's that is)

Well, football teams perform when it's wet.  Hence the name football stadiums.  But to say one is going to spend millions and millions of dollars so that drill teams may or may not be able perform is a travesty on the taxpayer.  Probably why one doesn't see "drill team" stadiums.  Again, nothing said here or in any of these post supporting the massive tax increase would educate one child!

What programs? BCISD didn’t pass a bond in 2014, it failed.

Never said it was true or false.  Just said I heard.  If it's not true, then I appreciate the truth.  So, good for them.  They were smart!  Again, nothing said in any of these post supporting this massive $156,000,000 bond would educate one child!

It's been reported that Bridge City ISD is having to cut programs.  It's due to financial difficulties they are in from their 2014 bond passage!

This is the hidden content, please

The closer truth is probably that the $25 million bond that was rejected in 2014 will now be a $46.1 bond issue vote in May.

This is the hidden content, please

By the way, news of the 2014 no vote was not that hard to find.

You said it was reported. Who reported it? What programs? You state BCISD is having financial issues and having to cut programs, implying that is something NISD will have to do.

Can't stand liars and manipulators.

Just tell the TRUTH.

If you don't think Nederland ISD needs everthing spelled out in this Bond Package (AND MORE) then you must not have been to ANY of their campuses in the last 50 years. 

Needs to one is purely wants to another.  Majority of what's in this massive bond will not educate one child.

Heck of a lot more to education that pencils and paper.

Did you know that they don't even have text books in most schools now?

And it's going to take $156,000,000 to solve this, if true?   Everything on the smaller bond side is a want.

This is not true at all. Aside from the basic listed on the district website, I don't know the details of what will be addressed in the bond. However, TEA sets standards for optimal education performance. Areas short of these standards hinders education performance determined by TEA. The infrastructure of a school building dictates the level of technology related education and educational growth that is needed in the advanced learning environment of today such as computer labs, smart board interactive technologies, chemistry and biology specific labs, etc. Classroom sizes are mandated from TEA to accommodated the growing needs within a classroom. Proper climate control, indoor air quality, etc contributes to a healthier environment which contributes to better education. The education advantages go way beyond the brick and mortar. I can provide plenty of supporting data if needed. 

Furthermore, I'd be willing to bet if you survey the students that have spent years in an old school, then moved into a new school you'd see increased motivation.

Technology, it is a crazy concept, but you might want to embrace it. I really think it is here to stay.

Progress, it really is a good thing. But, when you haven't kept up, it cost a little more than it should to catch up.

Let me repeat what the President of the school board has said: "President of the board, Suzanne Isom, stated this in a "Meet The Candidate" article: “I’m proud of the kids and how they’ve scored on tests,” she said. “Their grades and knowledge have increased."  Now this doesn't sound like she thinks the students are lacking.  So, are you saying without this massive bond of $156,000,000 Nederland students are going without the latest and greatest technology?  Is there a mass exodus of students because of this the school district is lacking on the educational front.  Mrs. isom doesn't think so.   Heck, if this is the case, then why the want of building a new high school?!

      Yeah, I got that but talk about a stretch. It should seem obvious that Trump’s prosecution is purely political. If someone is going to do a whataboutism, at least make it similar.  This is so ludicrous that it’s like comparing a ham sandwich to a wallet.

      You consistently try to say Trump ran our debt up and that the stock market and job market cratered during his administration (along with other MSNBC talking points). That is a flat out LIE, and you know it. Not only are you telling a mistruth, you knowingly are telling a mistruth...which is a blatant LIE...which makes you a "(I don't remember what word you used to describe Trump, something like a purse for dirt)" does it not? You know for a fact that the economy, stock market, and job market was thriving under Trump. You know that the Democrats controlled the house, and proposed a budget that would hurt the economy, in which he shut down the government. Even after this fiasco brought on by Democrats, our economy flourished under his administration. Then Covid19 hit, and the blue states shut down the country. YOU KNOW THIS, but continue to blame Trump. You lie...blatantly. Again, what do we call these people that partake in disseminating misleading information. You coined it...that purse thing. Does the shoe fit? I bet it does. It is amazing that you try to put "MAGA people" into this little box for the soul purpose of allowing all negative attributes of anyone that will vote for Trump instead of Biden to be attributed. That is a sickening modus operandi of stupid people. It is hard for me to believe that you would adopt that childish stereotyping. But since you are willing, I'm willing to push back. I'm a Trump supporter. I will gladly vote for him over Biden. So get busy putting me in your silly little box of stereotypes so I can embarrass you some more. You've been shot down by practically everyone on this board when you say stuff like Trump is their Messiah, or that supporters overlook his flaws. Everyone on this board has stated that they don't agree with Trump on much of his behavior, but you ignore these statements and continue with your lies. Oh yeah, since I'm a Trump supporter, those comments were also directed directly at me. So let's go. Prove I'm a simpleton that will ignore all of Trump's flaws and vow to disown the bad ol' orangeman. Let's continue that diatribe you peddle. I now am interested in responding. I also have boxes I can place people in. Whose box is accurate? Better yet, whose box is more embarrassing? I'm fairly certain your box is more entertaining for the board to make fun of. TDS should be included in the DSM-6, or revise the DSM-5 to include it since this phenomenon is so pervasive now. You are a walking, talking picture of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Do you like that box? Can you refute the rationale for placing you in that box. Everyone can refute your rationale for placing them into your irrational box, while you languish in your TDS box.

      Clinton got impeached because of it. David Pecker said it was true about Stormy today. Under oath.

      It’s not about worrying about Trump’s morality. It’s about him being held to a totally hypocritical standard that is applied to anybody else that’s not him. Double it if it happens to be a Democrat. What he did to Ted Cruz in 2016, for example. Accused him of extramarital affairs. Really? And the gang cheered the Master on. Sick is what it is.
