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?!

      Quick question

      By LumRaiderFan · Posted

      I voted for energy independence, secure border, selection of conservative SCJ, lowest unemployment in decades, I could go on but there's no emotion here, I vote for policies. Look at what we have now, there's no comparison. I just listed the reasons I voted for Trump, someone PLEASE list the reasons you would vote for Biden. @Boyz N Da Hood you said we should vote on policies, I just listed them for Trump, tell me which ones you don't like and wouldn't vote for him because of them.

      Republicans don't deserve...

      Hold them accountable? Like here in Texas where we have, by any definition, the most conservative Speaker that we’ve ever had. He pushed through an abortion ban and border security measures, reduced school taxes, etc… and the people who put him in office are firing him for not being MAGA enough.    Every third commercial on TV is Trump (or somebody who supports Trump) calling Phelan a RINO and supporting an impotent replacement for the most powerful person in the House.    It’s 100% MAGA, and it’s 12000% stupid.    “oh, he didn’t do those things by himself” says everyone who doesn’t understand parliamentary procedure.

      Me personally I respect posters like @bullets13 @CardinalBacker they vote for a guy and can call out others in the party or the direction a party can be headed.... others on here fall "lockstep" with whatever happens and defend by all means is the mantra it seems... no need to call out names, it's probably you if your mad at this statement 🤣

      I recall prior to midterms the R's and the "red wave" would get America "back on track" etc.... they would end this and stop Biden from that blah blah blah, so what's the problem? It looks like a circus show from both sides and whoever can sit or stand with a straight face and defend it is a 🤡! Desantis would've been a slam dunk for the R's and he possibly would've got my vote... now they pick a guy who lost the popular vote twice lol (yeah I know that means nothing in grand scheme of things).. point being is the dude is highly unlikeable (I also know this doesn't matter) 👈🏾 just getting ahead of the deflectors... personally I hope the clown gets in there so ppl can see how ultra right the clown is trying to push America for... IF he wins in November you can bet he will be on a rampage for 4 years getting lil if anything done, will most likely spend his term for the same thing some of yall complain about daily, going after his opponents... but hey the D's do it right? So yeah it's cool if we do it SMH We're supposed to vote on policies etc while at the same time the person you vote for that made promises to change or fix this and that complains about his predecessor being the issue! It's all a joke What have R's done that's good for America since midterms?  What have D's done? And please leave your feelings out of this and be truthful if possible!
